I’ve Been building software since the 70’s.
In the late 80’s I use Agile before it had a name.
This “Lug Nut” development is how I do software development today.
“Just make it work. Refactor as soon as you figure out how.”
Make no unnecessary investments.
WHY HAVE WE ADOPTED THIS NEW METHODOLOGY?
The cost of development, the cost of complile time, the cost of publishing updates once problems are found, have eliminated the value of attempting to imitate engineering, and we have migrated to the process of publishing documents that constantly are subject to editorial revision.
I have said for decades that what we do is discourse to develop hypotheses and theories with our machines — that we do not practice engineering.
It was the cost of construction of our discourse that made us imitate engineering and construction methods. In the present, we no longer engineer, we function far more like a debating society trying to discover a solution, and constantly updating our text.
THE CUSTOMER PROBLEM
But while this method is particularly useful for product and internal development, the customer is your enemy and his own enemy if you do not manage his fantasies.
So this technique only possible (as is common) with experienced customers.
We must undestand that develoment has never beeen a problem.
The customers have always been the problem.
They want to obtain retail purchases, and control a production process, for what is essentially a program of research and development.
THE AUTHORING (DEVELOPER) PROBLEM
And meanwhile, the lazy, unintelligent, and unskilled developers that seduce ignorant customers into employing them far above their skill levels export this behavior to the world. And customers desperate to compete by saving money on research and development are taken advantage of by the vast hordes of frauds in this business hoping to find suckers to finance their personal development and then move on, leaving the customer with failure and disappointment.
ONE THING WE FAIL TO DO
Technologists have not professionalized the industry in order to protect customers from unqualified craftsmen and thereby raise their rates and eliminate this problem of expectations. There is no test like the Bar, or public accountancy.
What we do have is reputations. And we should be vicious in our recommendations of those who harm our industry with their behavior.
PUNISH THE WICKED TO DEFEND THE COMMONS.

Old fashioned military service teaches you that your silly little freaking job that seems mundane actually matters. Because when men are cold, or hot, tired or hungry, frightened or stressed, all those little things turn out to have been important in keeping everyone alive.
The commons is like this. All the stupid little stuff matters. Picking up litter. Not walking on the grass. Crossing in zones. Good manners. Punishing vandals, miscreants, and the impulsive – all this stuff matters.

I don’t think it’s so obvious, but it is to those of us with deep knowledge of economics, that banks are rapidly becoming an unnecessary institution.
Why? because the next step in financialization is to bypass the banks with liquidity distributed directly from the Treasury, and the near elimination of consumer interest.
It actually makes no sense at all to charge interest on consumption. The reason we need interest in business is for the purposes of economic calculation (determining inter-temporal profit and loss).
There are three services that need to be performed: payment capacity, escrow on warranties, and collection – all of which can be performed by publishing actuarial limits the way we publish interest rates today.
Furthermore there is no longer a need for a single currency in a digital era, and we can issue currencies that are exchangeable only for different purposes
The roadblock to such reform is the government, financial sector, and institutional sector, all of whom prey upon citizenry through financialization.
And the citizenry is suspicious of such solutions primarily because until the government cannot enact legislation(pseudo-law) to further interfere with the economy, it remains in the interest of citizens to use banks and hard money as means of controlling the ability of the state to engage in parasitism.
Therefore the independence of the treasury must be a constitutional guarantee and attempts to thwart it punished with the same severity as treason or war crime.

@JonHaidt @sapinker Sadly, the distribution of philosophers is worse than that of psychologists prior to Operationism. For the same reason.

Keyensian is Mainstream. It is better to see mainstream as attempting to moderate all three forms of inquiry: rule of law for the central bank(monetary policy). Keynesian Discretion for the policy makers (fiscal policy). Keyensian sociology for the population (maximize consumption and tax revenues to maximize redistribution).

https://www.quora.com/What-is-after-socialism-and-capitalism/answer/Curt-Doolittle?srid=u4Qv&share=6348c1e4A keeper. Weaponry for your kit.
We have always had mixed economies and always will. Neither extreme is possible since under pure capitalism commons cannot be produced because incentives to produce them don’t exist, and under pure socialism productiin is impossible in no small part because incentives to produce don’t exist.
These two terms are also questionably dishonest. Capitalism refers to the voluntary organisation of production of consumption and commons. Socialism to the involuntary organisation of production of consumption and commons.
There no post capitalism. It is possible that there is a pure contractualism variant available to us and I am working on that solution.
But it as long as women can bear children at will without certain to if the ability to support them or their eventual self support, then there will always be intolerable want.
The he egalitarianism of Northern Europe was achieved through centuries of systemic eugenics. And westerners do not like to admit this truth rather than attribute their current luxury is the product of their character.
Hanjal line character is the product of dispassionate eugenics in all walks of life.
The early northern people delayed reproduction and out red. the anglo Saxons starting in the Netherlands practiced manorialism. the rest of europe hung half to one percent of the population every year as entertainment.
It is far more important for a people to eliminate the evil 80s from the population than it is to create genius.
This knowledge is the crisis of our age. mixed economies have won. There is no end to capitalism in the consumer economy and socialism in the commons economy.
Not as long as we are discussing humans.
