@NukeCloudstalker " "Continuous Integration"? Did people work in the shadows for 3 months on a separate branch, never merging branches and then having a completely broken / incompatible project" - Yes, and some still do!
...but even if you don't the data from the State of DevOps reports, read about it in the "Accelerate" book, says that teams that don't practice CI produce worse code more slowly!
It is not "Incredibly Stupid" because the point at which you merge your changes, whatever the frequency, is the first time that you know that they work with other peoples. You can try talking and planning more, but definitively, until it works, you can't be certain that it will. CI says "OK, if that is the only time we can tell it is correct, then let's do it more often so that it is correct more often". It really is that simple.
