The worst programmer I know
Summary: In a blog post, Dan North discusses the worst programmer he knows, Tim Mackinnon, who had a productivity score of zero due to not signing up for any stories. Instead, Tim spent his days pairing with teammates, helping them improve their skills and deliver better software. North argues that individual productivity metrics are flawed and that team accountability should be prioritized. He recommends measuring tangible business impact and focusing on how the system of work works, rather than individual contributions.
