"'Build, so you can learn' vs 'learn, so you can build" nicely summarizes the two approaches to software development. I do the former exclusively. Up-front discovery is almost always a waste of time. The first time you release is the first time you really understand what works…

Trying to make our failing processes work by “doing them better” just leads to more process. It’s like quicksand — the harder you try to move, the more stuck you get. I fall prey to this trap as much as anyone. buff.ly/3R567Dr
