Be wrong. That’s life.

Don’t be wrong for long. That’s #ExtremeProgramming life.

PSA for #ExtremeProgramming devotees:

Not all “XP” jobs, authors, experts, or leaders are what they claim. Before applying, ask around your network.

2 years ago, I thought of what #XP would look like if it was re-invented. Things are slowly moving in this direction... "eXtreme #eXtremeProgramming (2017)" https://bit.ly/2WqEfwE

What would eXtreme Programming look like if it was invented today ?

If you love #ExtremeProgramming and you see a rare opportunity to be hired specifically for that, you might jump at the chance. I do. I did.

Maybe in your case it’ll be what it sounds like. I hope so. But beware.
If the only code you’re ever satisfied with is your own, you’re not qualified for #TechnicalLeadership. Especially if you’re sure you are.

If the only bits of #ExtremeProgramming you’ve mastered are the technical ones, you’re not an XP expert. Especially if you’re sure you are.

The XP principle of sustainable pace of work seems to have been forgotten by many. #agile #ExtremeProgramming

If you repeatedly fail to perceive or appreciate what reputable #ExtremeProgramming coaches are accomplishing in your org, maybe you’re a great leader who doesn’t know yet what specifically to look for.

If you do this while claiming to be an #XP expert, that’s clownshoes.

Periodic reminder: if you’re intrigued by a job posting touting #ExtremeProgramming, maybe it’s what it claims to be. I hope so. But maybe not.

Hit up your network before applying. If you’re reading this, I’m in your network.

If you don’t know how to care for people and don’t care to learn, by definition — no matter how convincingly you write, speak, and code — you are not an #ExtremeProgramming expert. And when you take a power position and try to enact XP among humans, we can see you’re a charlatan.

Now that there are more folks here on Bluesky, let me re-up this post about Story Points! #Agile #XP #ExtremeProgramming #Scrum
Hi folks! I have a new post up on Embracing Agility:
No Points for You!
A specific topic regarding Story Points from my AgileAI experiment was whether we should estimate work on defects & tech debt using story points. Read on to find out!

The day has arrived! Hope to see many #developers today at #TalentArena2025 where I'll be:
- Sharing a session around #TDD at 10h (Visionary Stage)
- Moderating a panel around #eXtremeProgramming at 17:30h
Sharing is caring 🙂
Say hi if u want to chat 😉

Where #Agile sounds pleasant and inclusive, #ExtremeProgramming… doesn’t. But it’s a differentiator: #XP teams move with uncommon agility. Relevant to non-programmer non-extremists! So how to take advantage?

If stakeholders have to wait many months to benefit at all from your project, you have much more to learn about #ExtremeProgramming.

If influential developers of the highest caliber keep not meeting your expectations, you have much more to learn about #EngineeringLeadership.

Most practical experts don’t write a book. Distinct tasks, incentives, skills.

For the same reasons, some published authors are better at describing than at enacting.

Maybe an author really knows, in context, under stress, how to *do* the thing. Maybe not.

“We learned a ton, we got lots done, our team dynamics were awesome, and I’ve never felt this kind of team feeling before.”

Leaders are not obligated to value such feedback.

But if they don’t, they oughtn’t claim to value #ExtremeProgramming. They value something incompatible.

Closing Thought

When your team owns compliance as part of their craft, not as overhead, you pass audits with less stress and more pride in how you work. Try one step this sprint and share what sticks.

If you think #ExtremeProgramming coaches have to “know the most” or “be the most technical”, you might not understand coaching, influence, or your own technique-acquisition process.

If you’re still sure of your understanding, regardless of cost to you and others… clownshoes.

“It’s a very particular kind of uncomfortable, for a devotee of #ExtremeProgramming, to make a habit of making an effort with no expectation of finding out what good it did or didn’t do.”

So I'm trading consulting for employment: I've joined OpenSesame as an #XP coach.
"In my first job as a software developer, by a string of lucky occurrences, I happened to land someplace doing #ExtremeProgramming. I hadn’t heard of it."

My, how the tables have turned. On myself. New job starts today: schmonz.com/2024/04/09/f...
