I think it depends on your company rather than saying "most". If you are in a software company (i.e. you sell the software you write), then your value is the unique IP you create from writing code. In that case, hopefully a larger portion of your day is coding.

edit: When I say coding, I don't mean plumbing code, I mean something that is actually a unique invention.

I have delivered successfully projects using Scrum, but we were fortunate that our Scrum Master was well trained and a senior engineer. Our CTO also let us figure things out, and helped us when we were blocked. He was genuinely concerned with the team having a balanced workload, ensured we deliver user value and our software was of high quality. Story points were not used as performance metrics but a tool to help provide stakeholders with some estimation, but only when our velocity became stable. Overall, our process was light-weight, we spent most of our time coding, and we pushed hard to deliver value to the user. If we fell short, we learned from it, no blame, just learned.

The documentation is pretty standard, it allows users of this typeface to build out a design system that scales.

Doesn't autoplay for me, maybe I have a different local setting.

As a parent, I'm hoping this will reduce the at-home workloads and shift more work towards school. What's the real life value of having students go to school and then spend all-nighters trying to do homework and all the expected extra-curricular?

I wish HN had a central thread feature for discussing oft-debated topics like TDD, microservices, and agile. This way, we could contribute to the conversation instead of constantly rehashing the same points through new posts.

I was genuinely interested in OP's question and was hoping responses would not fallback on the much-already discussed "TDD or not" topic.
