> literally falling asleep during readings

Dailies in film is watching not quite the final product, but still an output of the process. Maybe the issue was reading code as a team (that's code review/PR) rather than reviewing the output of the code? I think Dailies as a metaphor to me sounds like a call for more regular QA/UAT style review sessions as team. (This metaphor is new to me, but regular "use the product as a team" sessions might be quite useful, just maybe not every day.)




Though he doesn't mention it in this video, I have seen Crockford promoting the 'Dailies' idea in talks before - and he does promote it as a replacement for code review and stand up.

One hour, every morning, where the entire Team reads the code written the previous day and offers feedback. Juniors learn from seeing real-world code presented and explained, Seniors get peer review, more eyes means fewer bugs, etc.

It didn't work for my Team, but I would be interested in trying it again in future.
