You seem to answer yourself. 
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Transport Canada has recalled the vehicle, which is classified under the official categorical designation of “STAR WARS,” for its tendency to experience failures in “extreme cold temperatures, such as on planet Hoth or in Northern Canada.” Just in case you're still using yours
I would have thought they'd warn about harpoons as well.

Agile promises continuous improvement through an iterative process, but without proper checks, project failure is commonplace Whodathunkit?
"Projects fail due to lack of planning". Yup. Agile or no.
|
|
|
|

The other dead-on observation, which I've seen: "...the iterative process may lead to iteratively improving, one failure at a time, towards the wrong outcome."
I've yet to see a genuine agile project actually work. The ones that seem to have worked have so much planning and upfront design that it really wasn't agile, even if they used all the words and pretended otherwise.

In my current project I was given one line requirement topics and asked to estimate development effort. Why ? because apparently it is an "Agile" project

Then the person who asked you to do that was an idiot, no matter what process is being followed.

They committed a project deadline of 30th June without even a single line of spec.

And guess whose fault it will be, if they miss the deadline.

The only ones on the project who actually know what agile is and isn't. 
My company is the same way. "We're an agile shop! So here is your project budget, here is the list of deliverables, and here is your delivery date. Now go be agile!"

Wow.
So if everyone who works at a place is lazy, incompetent, and unwilling to follow establised processes, those processes won't work?
Whodathunkit indeed.
Fave quote:
Quote: “Unless you are paying close attention all the time, your agile project could easily be hurtling towards disaster without you even knowing it,”
Um, everyone paying close attention all the time is kinda the core of agile, and one of the two-and-a-half reasons why I would upvote it.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???
