Made a thing. It was genuinely work.
ALT American Chopper arguing meme. Panel 1: Man with moustache pointing 'The strategy you wrote, its all vision, with no actions' Panel 2: Frustrated man in hat 'It’s a strategy, not an operating model, it’s meant to be a ‘north star’ Panel 3: Man with moustache shouting 'That’s just a goal, the strategy is the plan to achieve the goal' Panel 4: Man with hat throwing chair 'People setting strategy shouldn’t be telling people how to do their jobs' Panel 5: Man with moustache shouting 'If a strategy doesn’t change how people do their jobs, it's not a strategy, just meaningless words in a deck.' Panel 6: Man with hat storms out.
2 months later, into our second lockdown.
I'm getting replies on this Tweet again.
Thanks to all those DMs and replies. ♥️
I crave that velvety taste regularly now, but have managed without 🙃 💪
Woof. Look, cards on the table.
The past 2 weeks of lockdown have rekindled my old taste for tobacco like never before. Send help.

"we talk about programming like it is about writing code, but the code ends up being less important than the architecture, and the architecture ends up being less important than social issues."

Never underestimate the value of clearly defining a problem before you begin solving.

A question we've been hearing a lot recently is "How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting food and agriculture?" The answer is complicated. But this thread provides a small snapshot of what's going on.
What if software was contained and organised in some sort of evolvable arrangement using a standard method of communication.

WFH - A Poem.
Homes on my street, segregated governance.
Each has hired, a different leaf blower man.
Completing today's work, they create a tomorrow.
A lossless system of leaf debris plays endlessly before me.
Gasoline screams, in perfect balance.
Everyday.
