This is one of my all time favorite write ups on agile product management and the nuance between iterative and incremental development. I was actually lucky enough to attend a week of agile training with Jeff Patton many many years ago and it's stuck with me ever since. I've shared this article with just about every product manager and development team I've worked with for the past 15 years. I've observed that just about every dev team tends to default to an incremental development style striving to build every last bell and whistle before even thinking about putting code in production. Invariably, whenever I start working with a new team I challenge them to start thinking about decomposing, organizing, and deploying in a more iterative style. Sketching out broad strokes of the project end to end, getting the code into production, and building up the details sprint over sprint. It can be a tough transition and sometimes takes a while for folks to get their heads around it if they've never worked in this way, but ultimately, in my experience it leads to better outcomes in terms of smoother delivery, better development timelines, less miscommunication and re-work within the team, and better product fit for the customer. https://lnkd.in/gB4MmRrb

As a leader, a big part of what you're asked to do on a daily basis is make decisions. A lot of those decisions are about people and more specifically which people to trust. Should we hire this person? Should we use this vendor or contractor? Should we follow the advice of one of our developers? This is a great write up from the always excellent Farnam Street blog on characteristics to look for to separate experts from imitators. https://lnkd.in/gY8v-Ue3

To the brain, reading computer code is not the same as reading language New research from MIT reveals fascinating insights into how our brains process computer code. Contrary to what one might expect, reading code doesn't activate the same language processing centers as reading regular text. Instead, it engages a general-purpose network used for complex cognitive tasks like problem-solving and puzzles. This discovery has interesting implications for how we understand the cognitive demands of coding and could potentially inform how coding is taught and learned.
