Today's Friday, so we can talk about some more relaxed topics.

Your Company's Problem is Hiding in Plain Sight - High Work-In-Progress (WIP) is a good reminder that working on everything everywhere all-at-once is a bad idea. I'd like to bring up this topic, because I think this issue is even more prevalent in platform teams.

What I missed in this article is some advices on how to address the issue in a controlled fashion: how to properly calculate it and "sell" to the management. Still, you can get some ideas from the discussion on Reddit.

So, as a bonus, I'd also like to share these two articles:

- One is on the Little's Law
- The second one is on the cost of context switching

P.S. I'm in that age when I really regret slacking out at the Queuing Theory lectures in the university :\
