Feb 26	comment	Re-gaining confidence of senior programmer @BЈовић - Thank you. - I did not because i believe just being a senior does not make you the only one to act. If a junior expects some 'leadership' in development, or notices the lack of it, then they should bring it to the attention of the senior. If the senior then decides not to provide the 'leadership' then they are not worth the position and salary they have been given. :P

Feb 25	comment	Encountering the same issue in an application Sometimes it does. If the available application has the right features or functions then one could choose solution B instead of solution A.

Feb 21	comment	How to deal with a Team Lead who dislikes Extreme Programming? As almost every comment or answer has touched on: It really depends on the type of project you are working on and to some extent what your team setup and dynamics are. Perhaps you can give an indication of the type of project and environment you will be working in?

Feb 21	comment	How could I deal with conflicting personalities in a Scrum/Agile based team? Accepted because having the team take control of events which effects it, is the best solution. The conflicting members then have a responsibility towards the whole team's needs/requirements/decision. This also helps maintain the flat structure of the team.

Feb 21	comment	How could I deal with conflicting personalities in a Scrum/Agile based team? No matter the personality traits both the developers have strong and necessary skills for the project. So i would prefer not to 'alienate' any of them, or cause resentment by simply picking the 'other side'. That would probably further influence the team in a negative way. We also strongly apply a flat structure in the team, so it would not just be up to one person to simply choose a side and then things are settled.

Feb 19	comment	How to convince my teammates to follow some basic rules True. In my experience of SVN and GIT I have found SVN easier to explain to those new to the concept of versioning.
