Where I share my learnings about receiving negative feedback. It’s a whole bunch of framings I’ve thrown together into one more or less cogent story.
Where I point at layer gaps in developer surfaces and invent the term “deep stack engineer”. Because why not.
Where I explore some of the mindsets with which we might approach decision-making.
Where I learn about the law of tightening aperture, driven by gravity-like force of homeostasis, and talk about shadow gristle.
Where I learn about a new concept of strategy aperture and examine the gifts and curses of teams with different apertures. Also, an ode to gardeners.

Where I try to write down some of the principles I learned while developing software. The first one is about layering and the second one layers on top…
Where I sketch out a decision-making process that helps overcome the failure modes of pros and cons and advocate for more chances to get things right.
Where I learn about the tension (and biases created by this tension) between two qualities that businesses often find desirable: growth and control.
