Scanning through the #prodmgmt freelancer and consultant chat group: #tech companies in Germany seem to love projects with zero discovery but lot's of HIPPO opinions and untested assumptions. Combined if course with artificially set ridiculous deadlines.
Now they're looking for a saviour (read: external consultant) to make the impossible possible. Same thing everywhere.

One mistake which has been done many times in the past: assuming that other cultures and languages communicate in the same way than you do. Global teams (and also co-located international teams like most here in Berlin) fail because of this.

Kinn Bryggeri (Florø, Norway) - Humleriket (#5) - translate as rich of hops. Can't do much wrong with Kinn. This #IPA is very light, bitter and fruity. 4.5% ABV. Perfect #beer for the summer. 3.5/5

Please remember to always invite people to joinmastodon.org (instead of one of the big instances with mastodon in the domain name). This will keep the #fediverse nice and smooth and instance owners out of financial trouble.

You can follow anyone on the fediverse, no matter of the instance a user is located. And it might pay out to find a local or special interest instance if wanted.

Fjordfolk Mikrobryggeri - Juleøl (Brown Ale).
Kinda late for Christmas Beer but seasonal beer from small local breweries are available when they're available. Anyway, solid brown ale with taste of dry fruits and karamell. 3.25/5

New track by Poirier alongside Waahli:

"Poirier collaborates for the first time with vocalist Waahli on "Teke Fren", a song in Haitian Creole that means "relax" or "take it easy". The Montréal's DJ and producer Poirier composed a comfortable rhythm with an Afro-Caribbean twist (think about #Jamaica and #Haiti) supported by a catchy guitar riff on the chorus."

The purpose of the system is what it does. (Stafford Beer).

Weder scrum.org noch die Scrum Alliance scheint ernsthaft an Kompetenzaufbau, Ausbildung und Voluntariat interessiert zu sein, obwohl es ihr Auftrag ist. Wissenschaftliche Theorien aus Organisationspsychologie und Soziologie werden nicht zur Kenntnis genommen und lächerlich gemacht (alles schon auf Gatherings und Barcamps erlebt).

Auf der "Fläche" trifft man leider viel zu oft unausgebildete Scrum Master, wie sie im Artikel von Stefan beschrieben sind.

Imagine you tweet something, people go crazy and a few days later you are a few billion € richer. Just so. And you still won't care about shit.

Since tags only semi work on mastodon - why not add a #beersofmastodon group?
For your local craft #beer posts add
@beersofmastodon or / and follow the group. Let's make it happen!

"Brygghus means we brew beer" one of the friendly staff members at Brygghus Hundholmen in Bodø, #Norway said. And when I went upstairs to check the brewery, it was indeed brewing day - a new batch of Vårpils.
Great beers from the polar circle. The Juleøl 2021 ("Christmas"beer) was surprisingly fantastic with notes of licorice, clive and cinnamon. The #IPA had the deepness of a good old barrel.
Hundholmen has also an exquisite cuisine.
