Standup Meeting
Noun · Hacker Culture
Definitions
A short recurring team meeting, often daily, where people share status, blockers, and immediate plans. Originally meant to be brief and coordination-focused, standups often become a cultural flashpoint when they drift into status theater.
In plain English: A short regular team check-in about current work and blockers.
Example: "The standup meeting worked once we stopped turning it into fifteen separate progress reports."
