  • Well, shit

    Well, shit.
    Kaputte Heckscheibe

    Well, shit. Da nimmt man sich einmal einen freien Tag um ein bisschen aufzuräumen. Eigentlich läuft alles ganz prima. Obwohl es ausgerechnet heute geschneit hat. Der ganzen Arbeit ist eine halbe Stunde Schneeräumen vorausgegangen. Altpapier, Altglas, was mal halt so wegräumt. Es geht vorwärts, man sieht Fortschritt, der Tag läuft. Irgendwann kommt man zu den großen Dingen die schon lange in der Garage stehen. Sachen die kein Mensch mehr braucht, die einfach schon lange rumstehen. Eine Fritteuse, eine kaputte Stehlampe, eine digitale Personenwaage, alles aus den Neunzigern. Sowas alles. Man ist froh über den Golf, der so viel Platz hat, gerade wenn die Rückbänke umgeklappt sind. Es ist bemerkenswert wie viele Kisten dem Fahrzeugplatz finden, an der Stelle ein Lob auf Volkswagen, wenn auch der Konzern den Dieselskandal zu verantworten hat.

    Bis auf einmal diese Uhr alte Röhrenfernseher drankommt, den man allein schon gar nicht hochheben kann. Die jüngeren unter den Lesern erinnern sich vielleicht noch an solche Schwergewichte. Der ganze 5 cm größer ist als in dem Fahrzeug Platz. Well, shit.

    Selfie Time before going live with SAP Labs Talk, talking about 2022 trends, mobility, sustainability, the future of work in the metaverse and its impact on commerce, collaboration and customer relations. And supply chains for customer experience. Plenty of topics, that we discuss with the head of strategy.

  • International Space Station

    About 1000 pieces later this Lego piece is finally done. The International Space Station is a pretty impressive construction. It has been in orbit for more than 8000 days, it has been manned for more than 7000 days since it’s first construction in 1998. The main module measures 51 m, with the solar panels it even spends more than 70 m. It’s circles the planet earth in a height of about 410 km and takes a good 90 minutes for one orbital period.

  • It’s getting serious

    Meet in VR with Occulus

    Yes, really. The metaverse is a thing.

  • Full Moon

    The picture actually was taken about 6h later than full moon. Still goes under the headline.

  • Agile Theatre

    Agile Theatre Naming Convention v3
    Agile Theatre Naming Convention

    Did you ever work in waterfall managed projects? Coming to a company that introduced agile just recently, chances are you will recognise plenty of behavioural patterns. Playing the waterfall game to pretend to be agile is called an agile theatre.

    The phenomenon of this agile theater is not new. And in fact, a misunderstanding of fundamental principles in agile is one of the major issues with the introduction of this approach. Going full agile requires a fundamental change of culture, a lot of trust and self-sufficiency, that most companies cannot find easily, in particular coming from traditional industry best practices and established waterfall procedures. Most often the introduction of agile methods for project- and product management ends with the introduction of new language.

    In this matter, smharter.com was kind enough to collect and publish a collection of translation helpers, to help you identify an agile theatre. The terms and their translations will help you identify agile theater much quicker.
