I see a critical problem with the way that so many systems in the world are built on the assumption that people will not behave like absolute cu🀬ts.

Richard Feynman’s Philosophy of Ignorance β€” Rainbow Laces: John Le Drew Richard Feynman believed ignorance wasn’t a flaw but a spark for discovery. His life and work, from dismantling childhood toys to reshaping quantum theory, were guided by relentless curiosity and ques...

Richard Feynman’s legacy is a reminder: breakthroughs start when we embrace ignorance, question the old ways, and refuse to take anything as gospel. In science, in life, in teamsβ€”it’s the curious, not the certain, who push the world forward.

Five-seven and five,

Ah, crapβ€”too many.

If my agile was your agile, it probably wouldn’t be agile.

Tomorrow isn’t today. What works now won’t be what works next.

It’s what’s working for youβ€”your team, your organisationβ€”today. You’re not me, so what works for you will be different from what works for me.

β€œThat’s not my #agile.”

But it might be the right agile for you, right now.

I agree that generally people are not saying that. But, I think that many people conflate lots of things.

The problem is Agile got wrapped up in buzzwords, frameworks, and snake oil sales pitches. But agility? That’s timeless. It’s people being smart, responding to change, and getting sh*t done without a manual or a ritualistic β€œstand-up” in a cramped meeting room.

Agilityβ€”actual, meaningful adaptabilityβ€”has been around since humans first figured out that running from saber-toothed tigers wasn’t a bad idea. Agile with a capital β€œA” was just the branding exercise someone slapped on it to make it sellable.

Seems every week there are more posts about β€œAgile being dead” etc. As I don’t think it ever had a pulse so I guess I agree. But…

the difference between social networks:

BlueSky is like being at a cool party
Threads is like being at an office works do
Facebook is like being in a car with your parents
Twitter/X is like being in 1930s Germany

Good evening Blue Sky!
