Probably the originally intended Agile [1]

These days its been devolved into micromanagement musical chairs of pain. The kind that promotes what it professes to prevent and provide.

Before someone says "No true scottsman", consider that "Agile" is supposed to mean:

> People over processes

and

> Responding to change over plans

And capital-A-agile is literally a textbook process.


Yea, like when people say they are Christians but are against helping the poor. Pretty clearly not Christians in any reasonable definition...


Isn't "Christian" one of those predicates where identifying as such (public profession of faith) is what makes you one? I mean unless you're going for a denomination that requires baptism.


Yea, that's what it has devolved into. At least Catholicism can protect its brand against crazy stuff like that. The agile guys should have done something like that from the start... if they had known what was coming.
