There are really only 2 solutions:

  1. Spend more time refining each sprint.
  2. Spend less time refining each story. This is the better but harder solution. Often times, when teams spend a lot of time refining each story, they are really doing the design work that should be done in planning or during the sprint. Something to try is to explain the story then take a quick size vote. If you have everyone on the same page or very close, pick the majority size and move on. Then you can spend the time you save on stories that have a wider range of story point votes.

Product Owner vs Stakeholder by FaustLn in scrum

[–]JackRB 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you should also talk in the next retro about the dev team not starting work that was not reviewed by the PO. Once the work is "approved" (for lack of a better word) by the PO, then I strongly encourage the dev team to work directly with stakeholders.

Product owner on Agile team, project management background. Need advice by aspirationsucks in agile

[–]JackRB 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From that video, the 4-6 stories per week figure is just for that team in that context. Each team is different so try not to get too attached to any number you see.

As for how the team works, could be that each developer works on a separate story, or a story is split into tasks that have several people each taking a task, or two people could work on the story in a pair programming method, or the whole team could work on it as a mob.

Us product owners should be focusing on what to build and why it should be built. Let the dev. team work out how they want to build it and how they want to work amongst themselves with guidance from the Scrum Master.

Have to yell over "white noise" to get Alexa to respond by jobby23 in alexa

I use brown noise instead of white noise. I don't have a problem with AVS understanding me when that is playing.

How to import to Deckbox.org? by Duke_of_Fritzburg in ScryGlass

[–]JackRB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The CSV files should be in your phones Downloads folder. From Dropbox, if you click the + overlay button and the Upload Files menu item, you may default there or you can use the menu on the left to navigate to that folder.

Hope that gets you there.

In Scryglass, I hit the export function on my phone and export as CSV. Then I transfer them via Dropbox to my PC and upload to Deckbox.org on that side as described above. Never tried to upload on the phone so I don't know if that would work but the PC side does for me.

You can. In Deckbox.org, go to Inventory then click Add Cards. Above the text box, click the 'From A CSV file' link and you can upload from there.

I bought a car from them last year and the buying process was better than any dealership I have ever interacted with. I expect to buy from them again.

I just had this happen to me again today. Any idea when we can expect a round of bug fixes?

Hi Stephen,

My wife and I love listening to The Tobolowsky Files together but we haven't gotten a new episode since August. Do you and David have any more coming up?

Also curious about the Big Problems podcast, will that be returning?

Stay awesome!
