I understood every joke of it, I'm pretty proud of myself, though I still haven't figured out when and what kind of timestamp that was. I suspect it was a UNIX timestamp. ;) I love the Russian guy! :D I just read every strip from end to back, they all are awesome – and of course elitist!

Y'know I've noticed a woorying trend of change for changes sake, which usually means everything just becomes rediculous. "Why are we doing this?" "Because your boss thought it was a good idea for long and complicated reasons which we won't go into that actually turned out to be wrong." "Oh, I see." Oh this is so true of offices everywhere.

That's similar to when people say "okay, we're going XP now! No more docs! But pair programming is double the cost, so we're not doing that. And tests are a waste of time, we want RESULTS!" fs111, it’s not that Agile *is* like this, but rather that this is what many managers understand or do.

Sure there can always be last minute issues, but usually that should not happen. Agile does not mean you live in total chaos, I am working for almost three years now in an agile/scrum environment and it's just way better when done properly.
