This presentation discusses challenges with offshore software development teams and provides recommendations. It notes that cultural differences, time zone shifts, and invalid assumptions can create "bricks in the wall" for offshore teams. The presentation advocates treating offshore software developers like children that need guidance, and establishing four stages of team development: 1) Staffing the team, 2) Starting work shorelessly, 3) Speeding up the work through flow, and 4) Scaling the team while respecting individuals. Specific advice includes not outsourcing hiring, hiring people the leader likes, embracing new processes, and investing in communication infrastructure. The overall goal is to help make obvious challenges conscious and provide ideas for successful offshore collaboration.7 tips for more effective morning SCRUM
7 tips for more effective morning SCRUMAndrea Tino
?
1) Morning scrum meetings can drag on if not properly managed. Changing the speaking order each day and having members voluntarily lead discussions can make meetings more dynamic.
2) When reporting status, team members should follow a consistent pattern of discussing work completed yesterday, work planned for today, and only bring up problems if help is needed from others.
3) If remote, send a pre-meeting email with your status. In meetings, keep reports brief and under 5 minutes, avoiding deep technical explanations unless necessary. Signaling "take it offline" prevents side conversations from dominating.Successful agile in distributed team Scrum Gathering Shanghai 2015

DevOps is a culture and practice that aims to unify software development and IT operations. While DevOps provides benefits for startups through increased agility, implementing DevOps in large corporations faces challenges due to rigid structures. To adopt DevOps, enterprises must change their culture and team structures, sharing technical skills across departments and investing in new architectures like microservices and containers. Enterprises should start small with a minimum viable product approach, focusing first on continuous integration and delivery before continuous deployment. Maturity evaluations can identify areas for improvement and guide a roadmap for DevOps transformation.Why do we need a Scrum Master?

This document discusses test automation strategies and practices for Scrum projects. It describes four case studies of different test automation approaches used by teams. The key lessons were that separate testing and development teams led to lack of collaboration and knowledge sharing. The most successful strategy involved developers and testers working together to automate unit, integration and system tests using tools like JUnit and FitNesse. Having the team collocated and doing pair programming for test automation resulted in improved coverage, fewer bugs found per story, and motivation to learn new solutions. The conclusion is that collaboration is important for successful agile test automation.JFTL2015 - Tester une application mobile de A ¨¤ ZCedric GAUTIER

In most modern programming languages, including Go, it's possible for a function to call itself recursively. It's such a mainstream technique that we've come to take it for granted.
But what if functions couldn't call themselves?
There's a branch of mathematics called Combinatorics which answers just these kinds of questions, and this presentation takes these ideas and phrases them in Go to teach a deeper view of computation through the medium of code.

Humans vs Agentic AI Cost Comparison: Cut 85% Support Costs
TL;DR: Agentic AI crushes human costs in L1/L2 support with 85% savings, 300% efficiency gains, and 90%+ success rates.
Your CFO just asked: "Why spend $2.3M annually on L1 support when competitors automated 80% for under $200K?" The humans vs agentic AI cost debate isn't theoretical - it's happening now.
Real Cost Breakdown:
- India L1/L2 Agent: ?6,64,379 ($8,000) annually (full cost)
- US L1/L2 Agent: $70,000 annually (loaded cost)
- Qcall.ai Agentic AI: ?6/min ($0.07/min) = 85% savings
Game-Changing Results:
- 47 human agents ¡ú 8 agents + AI system
- Operating costs: $2.8M ¡ú $420K (85% reduction)
- Customer satisfaction: 78% ¡ú 91%
- First call resolution: 72% ¡ú 94%
- Languages: 2-3 ¡ú 15+ fluently
Why Agentic AI Wins:
- Human Limitations: 8hrs/day, 1-2 languages, 30-45% attrition, mood-dependent, 6-12 weeks training
- Qcall.ai Advantages: 24/7 availability, 97% humanized voice, <60 second response, intelligent qualification, seamless handoff
Industry Impact:
- E-commerce: 82% cost reduction
- Healthcare: 90% appointment automation
- SaaS: 23% satisfaction improvement
- Financial: 95% inquiry automation
Implementation:
- Setup: 2-5 days vs 6-12 weeks hiring
- ROI: Break-even in 3 months
- Scaling: Instant global expansion
Competitive Gap:
- Early Adopters: 85% cost advantage, superior metrics, faster expansion
Late Adopters: Higher costs, limited scalability, compounding disadvantage
Similar automation patterns emerge across industries.
Marketing teams use autoposting.ai for social media automation - same human-AI collaboration model driving L1/L2 transformation.
"We reduced support costs by 78% while improving satisfaction by 31%. ROI was immediate and keeps compounding." - COO, Global SaaS Company
Getting Started:
Calculate current L1/L2 costs
Assess repetitive tasks

Bottom Line: Companies avoiding this shift hemorrhage millions while competitors scale globally with fraction of costs. The question isn't whether agentic AI will replace routine tasks - it's whether you'll implement before competitors gain insurmountable advantage.
