Cowboy Programming:

PO: Hey we want to go to Mars
- 3 weeks of silence -
Developer: Hey I'm there, where are you?

This is the way.

Assuming you know the developer isn't a shitbird, because you're the developer. If this was Investor Humor the idea would be less popular.

PO: Someone else figure out how to repeat what he did.

Second developer: Sorry, I tried to make sense of his rocket design but I can't figure out how to make a copy that doesn't explode before we even put the fuel in.
