in is slightly different. We don't have a Scrum Master we have a SCUMM master. Someone that is really good at playing Day Of The Tentacle.

Les collègues qui font de la gestion de projet régulièrement avec tout le formalisme, c'est quoi le logiciel open-source de gestion de projet qui va faire pleurer MS Project tellement il est beau, efficace et parfait ?

I'm looking to switch away from Trello for my personal tracking.

What do folks like for this sort of thing these days?

Criteria:

  • Not Notion (already tried)
  • macOS & iOS required (incl. sync)
  • Would really rather not self-host
  • Kanban-ish not necessarily required

Serious suggestions only, please.

Whether or not you are suffering from digital overwhelm, the concept of simple task management in an app like or @ia Writer is worth looking at. If you're not sure whether a simple system using links and queries might work for you, check out my latest article on the subject:

50% of the problems in project management are communication issues; the remaining 80% are estimation errors.

As I suspected, we're stalled out (now one week delay, unclear how much longer) in our disaster remodeling because the contractor failed to order the carpet early enough. In chess, we would call them a one-move-ahead player (ie only able to look at the move they are on), versus a 3-4 move ahead player (anticipating possible issues/problems ahead of time).

To avoid heading down the all-too-easy road of burnout, @webchick has a suggestion: adopt the mindset of a project manager. PMs intuitively understand that saying "yes" to one thing means saying "no" to others, and you have to learn to "guard your "Yes"".

"This is another variation of the High-Tech Illusion: the belief that software developers do easily automated work. Their principal work is human communication to organize the user's expressions of needs into formal procedure. That work will be necessary no matter how we change the life cycle."

— Tom DeMarco, Tim Lister, Dorset House: https://bookrastinating.com/book/35067, p. 34

This quote from a 37-year old book seemed a useful and apropos reminder in the current , hype-cycle.

How do i explain to someone that daily standups are for devs to just keep up to date with whats going on and where they need help

And not a ridged meeting for documenting work done yesturday, todays work and blockers, so the scrum master can report back to upermanagement so they can audit and micromanage the team.

its not that i hate scrum, its i hate people that dont understand it and try to follow the letter of the law vs the spirit.
