🏆 SPRINT VELOCITY

Protect sprint velocity from constant interruptions.
Hit your commitments every time.

Every "quick question" from a PM costs your sprint 23+ minutes of engineer focus. Multiply that by 5-10 interruptions per day and watch your velocity tank.

Stop losing 10+ hours per week to "quick" questions
Engineers stay in flow state longer
Hit sprint commitments consistently

10+hr Lost Weekly

5 interruptions/day × 23 min each × 5 days = 10+ hours of lost productivity per engineer per week.

Protect Velocity → Reclaim 10+ hours per engineer per week.

Team, reminder: all code questions go to @context now. Let's protect our focus time this sprint.

Chris • Product Monday

@context How hard would it be to add Apple Pay to checkout?

critical.cx APP Monday

Apple Pay integration estimate:

• We already have Stripe in app/services/payment_gateway.rb
• Apple Pay is a ~2-3 day addition (Stripe supports it natively)
• Changes needed: checkout form, payment service, tests
• No database changes required

THE IMPACT

More focus = more velocity = happier team.

Hit Commitments

Delivery

When your team isn't constantly interrupted, they actually finish what they planned. Novel concept.

Better Estimates

Planning

Estimates are more accurate when you're not padding for "unknown interruption overhead."

Happier Engineers

Retention

Engineers who get to do deep work are engaged engineers. Engaged engineers don't leave.
