After ~3 months, the experiment to convert my old consulting S-Corp into a self-directed producer/worker/consumer software #Coop is entering the final stage of the inception phase.

I don't know that we'll stick the landing, but it feels like we're getting closer to something that will provide a sustainable #BasicIncome for producer and worker members.

Finance, Governance, and Product rundown for June here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vQ9vAPBZUklOfreBdI-7zRUW2tVjXyvJwyNrzBeuOc4Q9vlTrqFa-k0zLdbiPKe27RtG9EQaEfHfwo5/pub

#IndieDev #ZincCoop

Me: “measure contributions by the quantity of time and attention provided, multiplied by skillfullness of that time. Reward them with a proportion of the wealth generated from that application of time in perpetuity.”

Also me: “How am I three weeks behind on my time sheet?!?"

#PlayLog - trying to experiment with different textures at low contrast with a dark base. Practicing #Drawing is tough because i have a really hard time visualizing what i want to draw until some lines are there and then I tend to fill it in with whatever emerges.

I made the foolish decision to buy the latest #BattleTech expansion on the steam summer sale.

Now I’m playing an Ironman career without any idea how the game has changed in the last year and a half.

I need to relearn how to think tactically in this game.

Rough draft of a possible blog post on outcome oriented system thinking.

Where do you like to ask for feedback on your writing work in progress?

The best part about #OpenSourceSoftware is how libraries used by thousands make a few companies millions and are maintained by one person who gets so burnt out trying to keep up with the non-paying users that they ghost the project because it's too overwhelming.

Overall I think #StrangerThings #S3 is _good_ but not great. The colors are amazing. But the way it centered redemption and forgiveness of toxic masculinity felt off to me.

Plowed through the entire thing. It took all three books to start feeling really good. It felt really heavy handed at the beginning, and maybe it remains so throughout and it becomes more tenable.

I really appreciate the character development through the series. It’s not often that you get both an interesting setting and a solid character arc!

I have a background job that... well, eats up a gig of ram and runs at most once or twice a week.

Everything else in SideKiq plays nicely on a 512mb Heroku Dyno)

I'm super tempted to move it off of sidekiq and make it a synchronous scheduled job that chugs through what it in a one-off 2gb dyno so I can scale down the 1GB worker dyno (that sits at 200MB up until midnight, then spikes to 1GB)

Is this a reasonable approach?

Some more #worldBuilding for #SlipVector.

This time exploring the concept of conscious species as a whole age through learning and behavioral phases similar to how individuals of the species do.

#Worklog - #Nourish - Finally got around to making landing pages that target impact organizations and indie developers for nourish:
