don't you just love seeing a tech youtuber become a marketing puppet
Did you know, that this whole "Looping" on spec is why agile was invented? (and then proceeded to be completely destroyed by managers). What Theo describes not working at Twitch is the old waterfall process / Rational Unified Process. Basically everyone who ever had a serious look at product development knows it doesn't work that way and that you need to iterate with actual user feedback. But no! The managers come in and feel that there needs to be control, and / or that developers need to be hand held or what ever else they believe and everything just reverts back to waterfall.
Great! You just described how Agile development works, there is nothing unique with that. The sad truth is that companies still don't follow this pattern, even if it's a proven strategy
The story of how Theo discovered agile.
My bad bro. I'll watch the entire video to understand why I'm using the tools wrong.
The best developers delete more code than they write. Less is more.
It resonated heavily with me. One of the best of your talks
Dear Theo, please please do a video on what you talked about in the first 5 mins - how to identify the right places to cut and how to get a product shipping faster. For myself, I’m dedicated to working process and code bases that can stay in a shippable state and I don’t feel like I ever accomplish what you’re talking about. I slow shipping down, but what we ship works reliably and I never shy away from a refactor. This keeps the code base workable but then doesn’t really lead to faster shipping. It just helps prevent the massive rewrite down the road… maybe… would super appreciate your insight on how to be a great lead engineer / principle when it comes to make a product ship faster. Thanks 🙏
This did a great job of helping clarify why your perspective on AI tools and mine have been so different and I really appreciate you calling out the distinction between throwaway and production code.
