Define happiness...

I sure hope you didn't start relying on OpenClaw or anything...

The importance of reflection, StackMap - a way to umm, map your stack, more work on TechFreedom, testing is good, oh shit moments, and the usual interesting things I've seen this week.

Stackmap - A tool for mapping your tech stack.

I work with a lot of organisations on data and tech things. I often ask a simple question "Have you got a list of all your tools?"

Often the answer is "err...John might know" or something similar.

So I create a simple tool

It's free on stackmap.org

I'm just a man, standing in front of you, hoping that "one thing you keep coming back to" has finally found peace.

New Subheading

Yes, I publish weeknotes, where I ramble through my reflections on the week

TechFreedom, 20% beefs, the grant application is dead, is everything a skill, catching up with people, getting turned down for things and some actual paid work things...

Is This Just a Skill?

At one point everything was an app, or at least someone said it should be an app. Now I wonder, is everything a SKILL? And what's the difference between a skill and an actual product?

RE: @Tom_c_watson@mastodon.social

Or maybe as @dajb@social.coop says, become a 'lab'

Wondering if anyone would slightly fund me to explore new ideas and help you do something about them?

Willing to rebrand as a think and do tank.

Except I'd actually get to the do bit.

The Grant Application is dead. What comes next?

How federated protocols, local agents, and organisational self-sovereignty could replace the broken funding model. Come down the rabbit hole with me...
