  1. #TechDebt isn't something you "clean up".
    It's something you inherit.

    Old budgets.
    Old decisions.
    Old survival strategies.
    (Patterns go brrr.)

    I rewrote my tech-debt essay and published it on #Substack.
    It's about why planning feels like necromancy,
    why teams repeat failure modes,
    and how language becomes infrastructure.

    If you've ever thought
    "this technically works, but something’s off":
    this is for you.

  5. Reliability.

    Your team is a #DistributedSystem.
    Language is the transport layer.

    Decisions are unowned.
    And people burn out.

    Divergent realities are a primary (in)variant of human systems.
    Linguistic precision counters entropy accruing ambiguity.
    And coherence is regulative.

  9. HQP remains descriptive.

    Phase 6 does not prescribe policy, ethics, or governance models. It identifies the conditions under which stabilising behaviour becomes necessary for system survival.

    This is not utopian thinking.
    It is a description of resilience once complexity can no longer be simplified away.

    Further work now shifts toward observation, education, and careful application.

  11. @memory I think the rarity of it speaks to how hard it is for companies to prioritize this. This gets at the heart of the innovator’s dilemma and why it happens even though people are aware of it. The #humansystems are just set up against this type of behavior.

  12. @jchyip so nice to see other people describing organizations as human distributed systems. #HumanSystems

  13. In distributed #HumanSystems, "the truth is defined by the majority" is not necessarily the best approach to be used in every situation.

  14. My account here on #ScholarSocial is what I’d add to slides. My current participatory-action research project is on #InclusiveLearning through music. 
Where this #Movember campaign fits is that I’m motivated by a desire to make social contexts more inclusive through #SelfCompassion. The way this all works may get muddy. #HumanSystems to solve #WickedProblems.
