Description
In this week's episode, Ricardo addresses the risks of the Diderot Effect.
For many, this effect is directly related to consumption bias. However, it is perfectly applied also when we add something to our project, and that something triggers a series of new features causing control to be completely lost. This effect impacts budget, deadlines, and team, among many other factors.
It's like consumption; when we buy an outfit, it sometimes emphasizes that the shoe is not so new. With that, we bought an entire garment due to the trigger of the first purchase.
Ricardo gives three tips on not falling into this Diderot effect trap.
