Normally happens when project is not inline with the team's career goals. Having other team doing a more exciting project could increase the effectiveness of Home Driven Development to a point where team start to make excuses to go home early. One of the most popular excuse is "I don't need to be here. I can do it from home". HDD – Home Driven Development
Do whatever it takes to get the job done and go home not in crazy ass hours, where all the real fun programming begins.

Normally happens when project is not inline with the team’s career goals.

Having other team doing a more exciting project could increase the effectiveness of Home Driven Development to a point where team start to make excuses to go home early. One of the most popular excuse is “I don’t need to be here. I can do it from home”.

This is from my upcoming book, "The Nomadic Developer", where I define some terms for the consulting industry: Faith Driven-Development A development practice also known as “code n’ pray” or “Waterfall”. It relies on an ever knowing business analyst write an Old Testament like book known called “The Requirements”; non-coding architect to write New Testament like book called “The Design”. Once those are done and cast in stone tablets, a developer (you) is called upon to code the system, with results in a situation that resembles the last chapter in the New Testament, called “Revelations”, in which the forces of good and evil fight on a giant battlefield, with massive bloodshed (a process known as “Testing or Quality Assurance”) after which there is a promise of a thousand years of utopia. Sadly, it seldom ends this well. You don’t have an F entry, so here you go. This is from my upcoming book, “The Nomadic Developer”, where I define some terms for the consulting industry:
