Good news everyone! My magnum opus on Scrum just dropped, clocking in at almost 9K words! Prepare a drink, strap yourselves in, and enter the Torment Nexus.

@ludicity Your diagrams reminded me of another excellent book by DeMarco and Lister, Waltzing with Bears: Managing Risk on Software Projects.

@lwriemen Sounds very familiar! I know they did either Slack or Peopleware, and I've read both. I thought they were both solid anyway, though I disliked the use of clearly fabricated stories to lend arguments extra weight. (The "Black Team" story is taken very seriously in some places despite being obviously not real.)

@ludicity What source do you have that says the "Black Team" wasn't real? Peopleware isn't the only book to talk about them.
