Good boundaries for flow are like a rainwater gutter: watertight for flow of value, but open for diffusion of learning.

"The fraud of the cryptocurrency bubble was far more pervasive than the fraud in the dotcom bubble, so much so that without the fraud, there’s almost nothing left. A few programmers were trained in Rust, a very secure programming language that is broadly applicable elsewhere. But otherwise, the residue from crypto is a lot of bad digital art and worse Austrian economics."

"AI companies are implicitly betting that their customers will buy AI for highly consequential automation, fire workers, and cause physical, mental and economic harm to their own customers as a result, somehow escaping liability for these harms. "

Scoop: Solar storm is causing farmers' tractor GPS systems to go haywire. Many have shut down planting altogether during a critical period. A Deere dealer said accuracy is "extremely compromised"

@gsuberland @thetaphi @jasonkoebler Indeed, which also suggests that the over reliance on GPS for centimeter accuracy in crop planting is a nasty failure mode that should be avoided.

The solar storm is just a dress rehearsal 🎭 for nation state actors knocking out GPS and causing food shortages.

Wondering if wealth inequality is out of control?

Well, Jeff Bezos made over $7.9 million an hour last year.

In just 13 minutes, he made the equivalent of what a typical person earns in a lifetime.

Don't tell me that the rich can't afford a wealth tax.

"But how does it scale?" is a common question for organizational transformation initiatives. The answer is that it scales primarily via enthusiasm and learning, not via structure or framework.

Example:

Let's say the required outcome is to move 100 people over 10 kilometers. Do you:

  1. Build a juggernaut that fits 100 people 🚚 - the "framework" approach
  2. Organize a 10km fun run and train people up 🏃 - the nimble, humane approach

The 10km run is the way

@shiftleftist heh, good analogy. Some projects are death marches... ⚰️

matthewskelton,
@matthewskelton@mastodon.social avatar

@lukadotnet quite. The "build a juggernaut" thing has more kudos in a patriarchy.

matthewskelton,
@matthewskelton@mastodon.social avatar

@JeffGrigg @sol_hsa it's an imperfect metaphor...

The point is that change at scale requires building enthusiasm and real development of humans, not just some big framework.

Honestly finding it amazing that what the are taking away from the is that they need to be more rightwing.

Seriously what are these folk on??

@hazz223 I think the "logic" goes: look at all these left wing urban dwellers. They need to be punished. 🤷🏼

📢 I have decided to make the core operation of Team Topologies non-profit. TT authors Manuel Pais and I are committed to the core mission : "...to make work more humane and more effective for everyone ..." and means I will not be able to profit personally from core TT activities. 💵🚫

More details over the coming weeks as changes happen...

I'd welcome your thoughts and feeling on this! 🙏

@monospace I like the way you have presented this 👏🏼

Would you be open to some kind of grouping of communities? Probably a mutual referral discount code, etc.

matthewskelton,
@matthewskelton@mastodon.social avatar

@monospace super! I am thinking of a kind of collection of complementary paid communities where people can discover related/adjacent communities easily and get a discount on subscription to other communities in the grouping...
