“Interactive obituary - 22 min”

Ugh is there a regular text version I can read at my own pace?

Also why light text on black background? Hurts my eyes and is very difficult to read.

Guess I’ll wait for someone with more patience and better eyesight to maybe provide a summary or something :)

im really curious how you think this is worse than the other way around

I don’t like “dark mode”. It’s blurry, makes me have to squint and hurts my eyes.
hey! Sorry - I just always wanted to write a piece with some interactivity so maybe I went too far with this one.

Here is a more static one: https://death-of-scrum.net/static/

I hope that helps!

It does! Thanks so much!
Yeah, this seems like it could have been a few paragraphs. It goes on and on.

I’ll give my hot take without reading.

I’ve been in a lot of kinds of scrum and it seems like a YMMV thing. The most effective scrums are the ones which start from first principle and create a process for the teams current needs.

Many of the most effective ones worked out of a spreadsheet or Google doc rather than an issue tracker. Sometime the PM would update the issue tracker behind the scenes to keep devs out of it.

Anyways, my point is that most effective things are custom built rather than trying to apply a blanket process across a company or to different situations.

Nearly 100% of the scrum processes I was involved with at Fortune 500 companies were top-down mandates that could not be deviated from.
Mobile safari reader view fails too with this layout / style.
