    Ryan Findley

    In this episode, our guest Ryan Findley discusses doing things the Rails Way™ versus following other patterns, the case against rewriting software (and how you might anyway), the case against story points (and why you might want to use them anyway), how to measure developer productivity without triggering the wrong behavior, and bonsai gardening as it relates to software stewardship.
