Reflecting on the Mythical Man Month
Manage episode 487098847 series 87197
At an event recently, I had a chat with someone after one of my sessions. I had been speaking on DevOps and ways to better structure your team and build software. After the session, one person asked me if I'd read The Mythical Man Month and if I felt we'd gotten a lot better at building software since that book was published.
I do think we have gotten better, way better, in fact. I caught another review of the book a while back from the Pragmatic Engineer. That view looked at what's changed in 50 years since the first edition, as well as contrasting the world today. You have to subscribe to read that one, but I'll give you a few thoughts from me on the book itself and the review.
