I reached a goal I’d worked toward for years: becoming a successful independent software development consultant.
Then I had to answer a harder question: what comes next?
That search led to a lot of research, a long interactive chat with ChatGPT, and eventually the PurposeCompass Framework.
PurposeCompass helps you look at your values, what you love, what you’re good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for to find the sweet spot where they meet.

@jbrains @qcoding @marick Yes! I practice long term refactoring #ltr. Only spend a reasonable amount of time with each code change #refactoring the code around it towards a more testable/maintainable design. Doing this helps increase the probability you are only refactoring code that will likely change in the future and not touching code that will probably never change and doesn't need a better design.

In the #MWNN you are free to pick and choose whichever processes you feel will help your team succeed. Like Tuco does to assemble his perfect gun. To me this extremely light weight methodology, of all the methodologies, best fits the agile manifesto's number one value "Individuals and interactions over processes and tools".

With the #MWNN there is no need for sprints and sprint planning where you try to guess how many stickies you can do in the sprint, and flagellate yourselves if you don't complete your guessed number of stickies or oddly even if you complete more stickies than you guessed. I find this about as useful as medieval monks arguing about how many angels can do the Mambo No.5 on the head of a pin.

which the kanban.university guide says can be used with any methodology and is not a methodology in itself.
So I call it the Methodology with No Name(#MWNN), like Sergio Leone's character the Man with No Name.

Inspired by this https://towardsdatascience.com/how-i-continually-improve-my-claude-code/ I added @session-control /analyze and /implement commands to my Session Control(https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=darrenjmcleod.session-control) #VSCode extension that analyzes the chats saved in the .chat folder for things that could be added to your AGENTS.md, .github/copilot-instructions.md, CLAUDE.md, SKILLS.md etc. to make future chats run smoother.
