It’s ideal to write stories that can deliver a feature, end-to-end, all at once. But sometimes–especially when integrating with new systems, dealing with complex data processing, or working with a complex story dependency graph—it makes more sense to break up the work so you can deliver each story as its own link in a long chain. But while you and the rest of the development team may be able to clearly understand each link in the chain and visualize it independently, your product owner may

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

The people on your team are motivated. But they are not motivated by the same thing. One programmer might be motivated by “cutting-edge technology.”. Another by “software quality”, and a third by “system scalability.”. These fall under the motivational factor Fredrick Herzberg termed, “the work itself.”. Your motivation. You are also motivated, but maybe not by cutting-edge technology, software quality, or system scalability.
