It's a small world after all
summary
Claims that cloud and cheap compute let 15-person startups spin up full banks, that long projects fail and teams must shrink into micro-teams, and that moving to continuous delivery eliminates large estimations. Demonstrates hundreds of automated CI/CD pipelines that take code to production in ~3 minutes, pushes feature-by-feature delivery, and shows estimation error: repeated trials converge only after thousands of samples. Argues microservices are necessary but increase coordination pain unless delivery is fully automated.
