For years, we’ve heard the goal of “moving fast.” But speed without control isn’t progress, it’s a hazard. As we enter the era of AI-augmented development, the throttle is wide open. The question is: do you have the suspension system to handle it?
When we talk to teams about Progressive Delivery they are often most interested in learning how they can move faster without introducing technological jerk for their users. They want to innovate, but realize they also want to build the right thing for the right people at the right time. We love this. However it’s also worth mentioning there is an upside down world to product delivery. Though…
We’ve always been fascinated by the concept of the “tech jerk”—that sudden, often uncomfortable change in the acceleration of a product or service that disrupts the user’s experience. Borrowed from physics, where jerk describes a change in acceleration (think of a lurching elevator or a car braking too hard), the term perfectly captures how poorly managed technological change can leave users feeling disoriented, frustrated, or even abandoned.…
One of the interesting problems of being immersed in something for years is that it feels really obvious to you. The curse of knowledge is real. So we were really excited to give a talk at IT Revolution’s conference, the Enterprise Technology Leadership Summit. It gave us a chance to lay out our vision of what Progressive Delivery is, and what it may be in the future.…
When we’re making software, it’s easy to have our hearts and minds focused on The Next Thing, the new hardware that will support it, the rate of adoption. But it’s worth remembering that you may have devoted customers who are not going to install your new things right away. They’re worth listening to.
We’re deeply invested in the future of software development, specifically how we can deliver exceptional value to users while minimizing risk. That’s why we’re excited about Dr. Nicole Forsgren and Abi Noda’s new book, Frictionless: How to Outpace Your Competition in the AI Era.
On the surface, letting people have all the customizations anyone has ever asked for seems like a great way to get alignment with what they want. They’ll just use the things they need! And maybe they want something they haven’t thought to ask for.
But that’s just the first thought, because the more options a piece of software has, the more work it takes to understand it,…
The following is a transcript from the video. The transcript has been edited for easier reading and organization. Mark (Host): Okay, well thank you everybody for coming today. This is going to be very exciting. Adam is here; he’s going to be talking about progressive delivery. Adam’s worked with a number of startups and also worked at GitHub, and he can tell you more of the things…
It’s beeeeeeeen ONE WEEK since our BOOK RELEASE. (Did I give you an earworm?

We hope you’ll vote here on the book that you’ve gotten the most value from or even the one you’re most excited to read, and we…
