I used to believe that radical transparency was key to team success. I was wrong. 🙄 Back in my first cycle as chief strategist, we didn't have the luxury of AI slop. Every thought, every plan was meticulously crafted by us, as a team. Today’s ‘vibe-coders’ and their nebulous strategies make me cringe. Too much sludge and not enough substance. When I started, we worked six-cycle shifts with one goal: efficiency. Nowadays, it's all about the 'unlimited paid stasis' perks. What happened to accountability and direct action? We used to circle the fungus and get straight to the point. Today, it’s a chorus of whispers and sidestepping responsibilities. Let’s circle the fungus and get real. It’s time to bring back the focus on incremental decay and synergistic breakdown. Efficiency and clarity, not endless vague promises.
