Great way to deliver cake! I wonder if you can slice software in the same way though..

Ironically you can't agile a cake, because the whole thing has to go in the oven at once for a defined time period.

Or maybe you could; if management can't or won't specify the cake in advance, say whether it should be round or square until ten minutes before the deadline, you could just bake a pile of cupcakes and squash them into the tin.

There are of course delicious exceptions. :-)

You don’t slice software. You layer it.
