That’s the grand irony. It was programmers who started the Agile movement as a way to say: “Hey look! Teams matter. Code should be clean. We want to collaborate with the customer. And we want to deliver early and often.”

    The Agile movement was started by programmers, and software professionals, who held the ideals of Craftsmanship dear. But then the project managers rushed in and said: “Wow! Agile is a cool new variation on how to manage projects.”

    There’s an old song, by Alan Sherman, called J. C. Cohen. It’s about a subway conductor who did such a great job at pushing people into the train cars, that he pushed the engineer out. This is what happened to the Agile movement. They pushed so many project managers in, they pushed the programmers out.

Зорі на небі нам покажуть шлях
Нас загартували хвилі у вітрах
Тризуб на серці золотим тавром
Брамою зі сталі станем за Дніпро
....
Слова упали і згоріли
Новим немає більше віри
Ми найдорожче віддамо за рідний край
Там, де рабів немає

Слова упали і згоріли
Новим немає більше віри

Ми найдорожче віддамо за рідний край
Там, де рабів немає
