We British spell it centre too. I long hope America rename their language to American rather than the incorrect American English. It's inaccurate and it's own messed up thing.
Delayed response, but raise a ticket in retros saying retros should be cancelled. Andvwhrn asked why, say nothing is followed upon or learn so there is no point doing them.
Then you can talk shit about them and make clear without change, you won't commit time to next one as there is no point.
I don't know those guys so they can say what they want. We don't just ship. We code, review, test and only then deploy. I will build this the only way I can see and it'll take 3 days. Want me to start this?
You're trusting a PO to decide on how you build? They ain't coders. They decide on value, you estimate and build and they prioritise based on the information you provide. POs aren't the boss of devs. That's usually engineering managers. You are both specialists in your field. You don't lecture them on value and how pointless a feature is, you size it, and using velocity they can anticipate how much will likely be delivered in next sprint. If they really object, "if you feel you can build it in 1 day, go ahead, ill give you access. I have no idea how that could be done"
PO wouldn't like it during live incident when shit goes wrong that you suggest "I did highlight the risk of this occurring and proposed mitigation steps but was overruled".
"True. It'll be perfectly fine, and because of that, you won't need me on call when it all goes dramatically wrong. If you need access to the repo, I'll add you in though. Good luck."
Or, if you've worked together a while "like I overthought it when we worked on x, and y went wrong, and I called it before it happened. Turns out I'm quite good at seeing car crashes in advance."
"If you can give me that issue free codebase, I'm happy to do that, but failing that, it takes 3 days to add that feature that is akin to the leaning tower of Piza taped together with duct tape. There is only so much tech debt you can pile on until you are in code hell, and unfortunately, we are."
If they do some weird ass schedule "well, you can write down that if you wish, feel free to write down that my other car is a Bugatti, if we are just theorising on a perfect unicorn world".
No. Nothing does. There are about 1.4bn children over 5. Over 200m play per month. If you factor in economic information like those without devices, that's huge. One in 7 kids. In a class of 30, that's 4 players. Considering some countries will have low saturation, developed countries will have significant player population. It's huge. Unrivaled in gaming.
Correction: Actual English.
