Finally, embrace “scrappy and hacky.”
Email is hard. And even with recent advances, it will continue to be hard. You have to be okay with that. “Things are changing and we’re getting more creative freedom, but I don’t expect it to be near the same playing field as what you can do on a website anytime soon. And that’s fine. Our little community is scrappy and hacky, and we like it that way.”-AK

What it means to be “scrappy” - Product Coalition
Scrappiness means acting decisively. Scrappy companies know that the more you can learn, act, and adjust, the more able you'll be to outpace your competition. Companies that are scrappy do what they can to reduce this cycle time, minimizing unnecessary hierarchical approval processes by creating self-organizing teams.Jun 20, 2020

How to stay scrappy
And keep your team happy
If you’ve ever worked on a small team with limited resources, you’ve probably felt it — that scrappy spirit. That itch that gets you going when the going gets tough. That burst of motivation when they say you aren’t good enough.
Time and time again, I’ve seen how amazing things happen when you tap into that feeling of scrappiness. But how do you keep that scrappy spirit as your team gets bigger?

Hack sessions are an informal style of meeting that originated within the CommOps team. Hack sessions are collaborative, audio/video calls between members of the CommOps team. In hack sessions, members work on various tickets or issues that are happening in the team. They're a great way to keep on top of ongoing work and get questions answered quickly by other members of the team. It's also a great way to get to know the team a little more.

simplificado e desenrolado
Hacky é uma palavra informal, então creio que "desenrolado" mantenha essa escolha de registro, contendo a ideia original de que a coisa funciona, mesmo que de maneira imperfeita e a seu próprio modo.
També optei por uma tradução em que preservasse a sonoridade do original (as terminações em -y com as terminações em -ado). Mas ainda acho que para ficar perfeito, precisaria de uma tradução com menos sílabas, para manter a fluidez da expressão original.
