The Toyota Production System (TPS, usually called "Lean" in the West) defines three sorts of difficulties, all of which apply to software development: Muri, Mura, and Muda. They're all worth thinking about.

Muri is long-term overburdening of the entire production system (e.g., too much work for the people at hand). That's not waste so much as creating a system incapapable of doing the work. To my mind, Muri also encompasses inappropriate organization architectures, where the management structure is fighting against working in effective—all too common in larger corporations, but you see it everywhere.

Mura is variation in the work to do. The biggest cause is usually random show-stopper bugs in the drop-everything-and-fix-this category. Variation can also happen at a macro level, for example, tax-related software that's used only once a year, so all the bugs surface over a couple of weeks rather than continuously throughout the year. In general, the more variation you have, the more buffering and slack time you need in your schedule to absorb it.

In the Muda category, TPS defines eight categories of waste (all of which apply to software). I use the acronym DOWNTIME to remember them:

* Defects (of all sorts, but bugs and technical debt).

* Overproduction (is related to Inventory. Producing software we can't sell—often because we're not validating products before we build them)

*Waiting (all sorts of dependencies cause waiting, as do processes that mandate lots of meetings and the like).

* unused taleNt (punnishing people as "unproductive" instead of training them is a big one here.)

* Transportation (when the work needs to move from one place to another—from product to dev or dev to test, for example—you have delays).

* Inventory (work done that has not been released to customers. Money spent without a balancing revenue.)

* Motion (too much process. too many meetings. Lots of motion, but no progress).

* Extra Processing (building more software than you need. futureproofing).

Of course, all this is just the tip of the waste iceberg, but it's a good start.

The "stake" is the money you put up in a bet. The "stakeholder" is the person holding that money. They are betting on your software. Nobody is a stakeholder unless they'll experience a real loss (maybe not money, but a loss nonetheless) if their bet doesn't pan out.

babe wakeup new react framework just dropped

Before you comment jUsT wHaT wE nEeD aNoThEr ReAcT fRaMeWoRk

you should know:

1. Nate is the guy behind Tamagui - a tw/panda type styling system for Web + Native. This is for React + Native too.

1. This is a Vite plugin

1. has a similar vibe to Remix (loaders) and Next.js Pages Router (generateStaticParams)

1. Integrated with Zero - this is an (upcoming) sync engine from the Replicache folks for local-first apps. You can kind of think of it as a state manager + query lib + realtime

Glad to see people continuing to explore new approaches

Over the last ~2 hours I curated a new Podcast of 10 episodes called "Histories of Mysteries". Find it up on Spotify here:

https://open.spotify.com/show/3K4LRyMCP44kBbiOziwJjb?si=432a337c28f14d97…

10 episodes of this season are:

Ep 1: The Lost City of Atlantis

Ep 2: Baghdad battery

Ep 3: The Roanoke Colony

Ep 4: The Antikythera Mechanism

Ep 5: Voynich Manuscript

Ep 6: Late Bronze Age collapse

Ep 7: Wow! signal

Ep 8: Mary Celeste

Ep 9: Göbekli Tepe

Ep 10: LUCA: Last Universal Common Ancestor

Process:

- I researched cool topics using ChatGPT, Claude, Google

- I linked NotebookLM to the Wikipedia entry of each topic and generated the podcast audio

- I used NotebookLM to also write the podcast/episode descriptions.

- Ideogram to create all digital art for the episodes and the podcast itself

- Spotify to upload and host the podcast

I did this as an exploration of the space of possibility unlocked by generative AI, and the leverage afforded by the use of AI. The fact that I can, as a single person in 2 hours, curate (not create, but curate) a podcast is I think kind of incredible. I also completely understand and acknowledge the potential and immediate critique here, of AI generated slop taking over the internet. I guess - have a listen to the podcast when you go for walk/drive next time and see what you think.
