» Visible and invisible process both contribute to how work actually gets done

» Orgs should not rely on individual heroic efforts in place of designed-in capacity

» Accelerating the build reintroduces a bottleneck and results in wasteful overproduction

» Context comes from not just sharing information but engaging with it

» With appropriate context, those closest to the problem should make the product decisions

» Be outcome-focused and evidence-based regardless of what kind of product or service you work on

» Be careful not to automatically balance out a conflicting behaviour in others (such as a founder’s bias)

» “The obstacle is the way” – every setback is an opportunity to improve our condition

» Semantic ablation is when language outliers and quirks are averaged away by genAI

» GenAI exposes the thresholds and grey areas in your service’s decision-making

» Being able to build fast necessitates more human selectivity, not less

Every system has a constraint. It's the step that limits how fast work can flow through.

Don't optimise anything else until you've addressed it. Everything else is just moving the queue around.

Ask: Where does work pile up? That's where to focus.

Using the parables of the valley, I look at extraction by proximity.

I look at how a Modernist lens creates exploitation of neighbours in a critical experiment with Claude AI, with summary detail by NotebookLM.

Sometimes, I like #constraints. Constraints on my DDL for example, not risking vibes with data…

Here's how to create a check constraint that ensures a date entry is always entered with the last day of the month in #DuckDB:
