Very cool. I think what you’re reaching for is what architect Christopher Alexander called a “pattern language,” which is the foundational idea behind my Encyclopedia of Agentic Coding Patterns: aipatternbook.com

The most efficient way to run a team / organization is not to keep it fully utilized. Hurts your brain, but it's true. When you're 100% booked, any delay causes ripple effects across every single project. It's oddly more efficient to keep some of your team idle.

In January, I am starting three facilitated peer-to-peer learning groups for functional leaders (ie Directors, VPs, CXOs) of Product, Customer Experience, and Marketing. 5 to 8 ppl each. One high-impact discussion per quarter. DM me if interested.

These problems aren’t new, but they are urgent. As a first step, we’re offering price relief for organizations working to end social injustice in the U.S. If you’re fighting racism and you use @Mailchimp, let us know so we can help. More details to come.

My parents are 75 and 84. My son & I do frequent drive-by visits to make sure they have what they need. Today, I guess they needed to party.

Do you want a normally functioning economy or do you want to fight the pandemic? False choice. Controlling the pandemic is how we get a normal economy. Anyone who treats it like a real choice is assuming coronavirus isn’t a big deal, so widespread illness won’t hurt the economy.

Disagreements that push people away from each other on Twitter are the same sort of disagreements that, if discussed around a campfire with bourbon, bring people closer together.
