improvementOfDailyWork – Marc's Thought Nuggets

Another look at the Third Ideal

In a recent blog post, I explained how I ran monte carlo simulations on development projects in an attempt to underpin the ideal of “Improvement of Daily Work”. The simulations suggest that debt is the main factor killing all the projects that did not succeed. The mentioned post also brought up a lot of open …

A view from Monte Carlo on the Third Ideal

Intending to underpin the relevance of “improvement of daily work”, I simulated a couple 100’000 years of development projects on my computer (487’462 years1, to be exact) in an attempt to combine ideas from two books: The Unicorn Project by Gene Kim et al, and Fooled by randomness by Nicholas Nassim Taleb. This led me …
