Productivity is not a feeling though. Either you show an increased productivity or it doesn't exist

It is however extremely hard to measure accurately with software engineering and every easy measurement immediately draws ire from devs here.

[Cthulhu_]

Yes and no. You can measure things:

* features delivered * time-to-market (idea -> production) * code quality metrics * bugs found / bugs fixed * tickets opened / closed (and with what resolution) / month * revenue vs expenses * (if you must) commits / month, code changes / month

But few software developers seem to do that because it's overhead.

[Shitty-kitty]

Problem is, all the old metrics are now obsolete and nobody knows how to measure productivity anymore.

Performance review at FAANGs has always been vibes and soft skills.

Shipped projects don't lie.

Come on, we all know that shipping a project doesn't mean the project was productive

[hparadiz]

When tens of millions are using your code in production it kind of is dude.

And? That's not the point of discussion
