I haven't read this for about 10 years, but I just looked at it after someone linked to it and I was surprised how many of these things are starting to happen. Still no next Steve Jobs yet though.

Q: Why is it so easy to criticise and have a plan till you get into government? 🤔

A: Because outside govt, you see the problem in straight lines. Inside government, you meet the maze.

From outside, failure often looks like a lack of will, competence, courage, or integrity. Sometimes it is. But inside government, plans meet weak institutions, inherited liabilities, vested interests, procurement rules, courts, legislators, budget limits, security realities, civil service inertia, and the politics of timing.

Culture happens, stories begin and self-preservation agendas find life.

The easiest sentence in public life is: “They should just fix it.” The harder truth is that the state is not one person with one button. It is a network of laws, interests, fears, incentives, sabotage, capacity gaps, and consequences.

Still, complexity is not an excuse for failure. Government exists to organise complexity into results. The real test of leadership is whether a plan survives contact with reality, adapts without losing its moral centre, and delivers relief citizens can feel.

So, I have learnt to appreciate progress, momentum and incremental gains..... not the eldorado version.

Yet, criticism keeps power honest, but getting results for desired governance requires more than criticism. It requires getting involved, sequencing, coalition-building, courage, competence, communication, and the humility to accept that the problem was deeper than the slogan.

The code is to win by knowing when to lose, win or compromise.

On a scale we can all relate wirh, we should for example know that the wedding, of which we priotise expenses with, is just an event, while the marriage remains the institution of priority. Even within this family arrangement, optimising value reflects similar challenges.😔 You can read this in a way you get the message.

Be ye circumspect.....

Between 1982 and 2020, the number of the 100 richest Americans who got rich from inheritance decreased from 60 to 27. And yet on the left they think the mid 20th century was the good old days, because economic inequality was lower then.

June 12, 1993. Nigerians woke up early, stood in the sun, and voted.
For the first time in a long while, it felt like something real was happening.

Then the result was annulled.

What followed changed the course of history.

Welp, that happened faster than I predicted. Thought it would be end of 2027, then early 2027, but agentic traffic growing so fast that bots have now passed human traffic online for the first time in the Internet's history. https://t.co/2zX5bHdhsa

Prediction: In the AI age, taste will become even more important. When anyone can make anything, the big differentiator is what you choose to make.

Deferred context is one piece of the Software Factory.

Building software autonomously requires the full loop: planning, implementation, testing, deployment, and verification at every step. Droid always optimizes this loop for the best quality-cost tradeoff.

This is a classic articulation of the "logos/rhema" distinction.

Logos = written word of God / logic / reasoning

Rhema = spoken word of God / "now word" / "revelation" (the "word of the Lord came" to a prophet)

The only problem is that this distinction is false. 👇⬇️🧵 1/
