My latest hypothesis is can we attack solvable problems with tools? Not keep creating novel software no one is asking for, but looking at problems that were nebulous & expensive to coordinate and attack them with tools that can help save hours, FTEs and resources for orgs?

heh that's what this was about youtu.be/5GUwgPwpkLw • started out by solving diffuse, chronic problems • turns out nobody wants to pay for any of that • the challenge is to transmute chronic and diffuse into individual acute problems people can solve by paying me some reasonable quantity of money

Yeah nobody wants to pay for it. My issue is people finding the ability to shapeshift as difficult to leverage rather than as a multi-tool for many problems, so can free tooling attracting users show a proof that all the other stuff apparently missses?

I'm finding the post-design, AI breakneck a lot more frustrating than the Web 1 to Web 2 eras. Probably not dissimilar to other folks who participate in community building, but having always been away from the epicenter of whatever communities I needed to be in, I think it's more acute

ah yeah i'm not really "in it" anymore where "it" is "making software products" (although i never really was; i was always tooling and infrastructure) so i'm not really sensitive to the change

a long time ago (like 2009-10?) i decided that trying to keep up with stuff was pointless and instead started focusing on things that were inherently slow-moving; that's what this whole business was about youtu.be/e6FxOpVfCBg
