Continuous Integration is a software development practice where members of a team integrate their work frequently, usually each person integrates at least daily - leading to multiple integrations per day. Each integration is verified by an automated build (including test) to detect integration errors as quickly as possible. Many teams find that this approach leads to significantly reduced integration problems and allows a team to develop cohesive software more rapidly.

The biggest issue on software teams is making sure everyone understands what everyone else is doing.

I can't choose whether someone is offended by my actions. I can choose whether I care.

So I hope I’ve made clear that imposing agile methods is a very red flag.

I've learned to always avoid saying "always"

A pattern is an idea that has been useful in one practical context and will probably be useful in others.
