i love the process of AI vibe coding slowly re-inventing the normal structures of software development

how long until we start seeing software products for scrum management and t-shirt size estimation for claude code

introduce waterfall methodology to the LLM!

T shirt estimation doesn't make any sense for AI dev, not one bit. They get epic long features done in hours, and all the shirt sizing comes from cases where the agent circles the drain and needs to be guided, which isn't predictable.

The shirt sizes now are for manual acceptance testing.

> T shirt estimation doesn't make any sense for AI dev

It doesn't make sense for NI (natural intelligence) dev, either. Even SCRUM doesn't make much sense. The only Agile thing that really makes sense is Kanban, which is actually known to computer science as dispatch queue.

In the 60s, OS researchers spent time figuring out how to optimally schedule resources for computation. Today, almost nobody uses these techniques. (This is known as "waterfall" in PM parlance.)

It turns out, the cheapest way to schedule computing resources is a simple dispatch queue. Why spend extra time figuring out in what order things need to be done, or how long they will take, if they need to be done anyway? It never made sense and it doesn't matter whether the agent is NI or AI.
