@macdonst @jenniferplusplus An old Paulism that seems related: Business processes are designed to make a large-scale failure look like a series of small-scale successes.

@inthehands @macdonst @jenniferplusplus Maybe related: https://g0v.social/@b3n/110455478509490398 I think a lot of the contracts are about to be broken. I hope the equilibrium is to focus on relationships more (think retention instead of reach), but I’m not sure that’s true and whether the overall frenzy in the attention market will allow it.

@inthehands @jenniferplusplus One spot I worked, I saw someone climb the ranks by starting new initiatives that "seemed" like a good idea but were incredibly badly thought out. The person used each project as a springboard to something bigger by getting out before it was discovered the previous project was crap. That way they could always blame the maintainers.
