Agree with Ash, love the organic format, its my favourite style of conversation - unscripted, unrehearsed and uninhibited. Simon is a master steering the conversation. A pleasure and honour to be a part of 🙏

AI is changing how we write code. Should it also change our Definition of Ready and Definition of Done? image
For us nothing has changed, and nor should it in my opinion. Do any of the examples you used for DoR or DoD change just because of AI assisted development? If anything, maybe how we evidence some of those things may change.

Asymmetry of criteria image
I learned years ago is that "judgement" and "understanding" are mutually exclusive. The people that make judgements are missing pieces of the truth, from what they observe. It can be instinctive to fill in the gaps of those missing pieces so you can complete a picture, that validates a comfortable narrative. It's very hard work to clear your mind and take the time to understand a persons motives or the truth behind an outcome to complete the picture with full understanding.

I really enjoyed watching you both riff off each other. I'd like to see more conversations like that were people are just connecting organically. Great fun, thank you both! 🙏
