"Agile was supposed to free us from operational dogma but instead it, much like Anakin Skywalker, became the very thing it was supposed to destroy."--LavenderDay3544, ["Agile is a disaster" says Tom Gilb, the Gradaddy of Agile.

"The reason agile spread like wildfire in the business isn't technical, but that it provides plausible denial in the face of failure at every management level, and the only thing management loves more than that is money.

It's effectively a way for management to push down responsibility all the way down onto developers (who are powerless), and to plausibly deny any shorcommings all the way up the chain right to the top (who are clueless). so guess what happens in business when you let *all* people with decision power in the process be unaccountable. what could possibly go wrong?"--znrt, [Agile is Killing Software Innovation, Says Moxie Marlinspike](https://developers.slashdot.org/story/24/08/09/1418217/agile-is-killing-software-innovation-says-moxie-marlinspike)
