I call it “a meeting” when it’s a waste of time, collaboration when it’s useful; a “requirement” when I disagree, a good idea when I like it; “process” when I hate doing it, the way we work when it makes sense. Probably too cynical. Too many mandatory backlog grooming meetings.

Working at the feature (or "epic") level is a way to defer high-value work for low-value work. All big things contain small things not worth building. Working on those in order to "finish the feature" is waste. Work on the most valuable thing, regardless of "feature," instead.

Russland zeigt sich offen für Verhandlungen – doch sei Putin nicht an einer Verhandlungslösung sei Putin interessiert, so Margarete Klein Expertin für russische Militärpolitik. Interesse gebe es nur „an Verhandlungen zur Kapitulation der Ukraine“ ➡️kurz.zdf.de/6g3n/ SWP Berlin

No. Things don't take longer. Let's look at one way to make stories smaller. The image in the QT is the first step in breaking up a large story into many small ones. (Something they evidently didn't do.) A "workflow diagram" like that is the first step. 1/5

Re. "Fail fast." I don't set out to fail. I accept it as part of the learning process, but I don't court it. I'd rather succeed. However, when I work tiny, occasional failure is easily corrected. Maybe, instead of "fail fast," we should be saying "fail small."

A USER STORY describes a user's work in the domain. It describes a domain-level problem. A USE CASE describes a broad interaction between a user and the system. It describes a computer program. Use cases do not describe outcomes. Stories do. If find them much more useful.

Meanwhile in Russia: genocidal denials of the Ukrainian identity from the host and his guest. They claim that Ukrainians are just mentally ill Russians, whom they will "cure" once Russia wins. They propose destroying all Holodomor memorials. They discuss killing Americans. Watch:

Regarding SAFe being somehow good because it adds structure: I'm told that being in prison also adds structure to your life. I wouldn't recommend it as a standard practice.
