Know the problem you are solving. Make your work visible. Work together. Create simple things in small steps. Be meticulous about composition. Validate before, during, and after. Release ridiculously often. Automation over documentation. #SoftwareDevelopment

The entire team benefits from knowing and understanding the persona(s) they're creating solutions for. Better still - they could meet and speak with actual users. #KnowTheProblemYouAreSolving #SoftwareDevelopment #WorkTogether

Commenting out the assertions in your tests to "make them pass" is a road to pain and suffering. #SoftwareDevelopment #ValidateBeforeDuringAndAfter

How is it that we so often equate heavy process and detailed documentation with “maturity”? Aren’t these the exact things required when the organization is not mature enough to understand trade offs and exercise good judgment?
