Serious teams know that building big software is hard and that starting by having a set deadline is the first failure point of a project.
Serious team wants a set budget and feature set. They also want a dialog with the aquiring party, because as you dig deeper in the software you uncover oddities. These oddities are more often than not a failure of the aquiring party understanding of their own business operations.
And thus, a serious team will help the aquiring party refine their business process by either removing useless steps, adding missings steps or changing a step in the overall workflow. And that’s were the most of the value of making a new software comes from.
Doing waterfall will stop this from happening and will remove actual value from the software because it’s going to be bloated with useless things that were badly understood by the aquiring party.
Agile is about producing as much value as possible, as fast as possible, in a set budget.
English is my third language so sorry if it’s hard to understand or feel aggressive.
I really wonder how it would work in a country that big in empty spaces and populations with so much authoritarian actors.
Each county has a well armed police force. Nearly each state has an armed force millitia. The country has a national guard. It also has several armed agencies. It has the three biggest armies on earth if you separate each corp and only count active soldiers. It has so much millitary equipment the overflow gets sold to polices.
Those armed millitia are all in different counties, are smaller than the local police forces, with less weapon and next to no organizational know how… They would never be able to have any other impact than get outgunned in a remote place by cops or the national guard…
Unless they all start to cause chaos at the same time, which would maybe lead to a semi destabilization of some part of the USA, I don’t see these people with guns achieve anything.
Also most people who wants guns are scared/anxious persons and will talk loud about using them but won’t act when it’s time, because their real motivation is hiding a percived weaknesses with a weapon.
That’s why in all the years of abuse by the insurance system in America, there was only one Luidgi.
