on 02015-08-13michaelochurch explains, “Industrial management has a 200-year history of successfully adding value by reducing variance, because in a concave world, low variance and high output go together. In a convex world (as in software) it’s the opposite: the least variance is in the territory where you don’t want to be anyway. #Convexity is a massive game-changer. It renders the old, control-based, #management regime worse than useless; in fact, it becomes counterproductive.” #software-engineering
