Conway's Law and Interfaces

Conway's Law states that organizations will design systems that mirror their organizational as structure.

If you have one GUI team and one backend team, your code will end up split along those lines, possibly with some surprising duplication or inelegant data manipulation on either end.

One idea to improve the relationships between teams and achieve a more robust design, is to agree on interfaces. These can enforce a better working relationship, and be a natural communication point for the teams, while allowing autonomy within their domains.

I suggest that you take two opportunities to document these interfaces: once at the beginning and once at the end of a feature. That way, discoveries made along the way are captured, and future changes have the full context of the original communication design.

States vs Events

I often see coders confuse these two. It may happen when they want to trigger an external event on a state change, or another module needs to know something happened.

The difference is that events are transitory (ideally instant), and that states are not. States can be temporary

For example:

I [started] a new twitter account (event).

I am now growing the account, I am in [growth] mode (state).

A lot of people have been disappointed this cycle, as they've not seen returns in 'altcons' or even in bitcoin, that they'd expected. But if you look at the charts, we have been roughly following past cycles, even though the market cap is several times larger. Next six months will determine if that continues playing out.

If it doesn't, consider this theory:

- As more people become long term holders, and the issuance decreases, the marginal demand transitions from emotional speculators to passive flows. This, plus the law of large numbers, could have a dampening effect on volatility moving forward.

It might be less 'exciting', but it's still the fastest horse. Not to mention the other properties of bitcoin wrt storage, optionality, cryptographic guarantees.

Be patient!

Mixing secrets for the small studio by Mike Senior.

A great book with lots of practical advice.

I found the audio could be improved in this podcast compared to say something like Rick Rubin's podcast. Here it is harder to discern the voices and the overall volume is slightly lower. I'd consider putting something like a bandpass filter geared towards the human voice, after dialing in the compressor and limiter at the end of the chain. When evaluating overall Master volume, good hygiene for monitoring and reference material is paramount. Gain staging becomes an important part, and should be documented and consistent.

Don't mean to step on your toes. These are just some of my suggestions. Hope it helps. Feel free to reach out.

Great stuff. Enjoying it. Your voice comes through well.

Connection to health care is under-appreciated.

I think the audio is typically a bit low-volume on Walkers pod, compared to others. Maybe add another compressor or limiter in the chain? I know you all are up on production since Carla's stuff usually sounds great.

Wow. Hope to reach new people with this one. Can't wait to listen. Rick is so good at making people feel comfortable, and bringing out their perspective and creativity.

According to this podcast with nostr:nprofile1qqsg2zqd8wkhpnxu6lm5c2dyfa2mhpwte57apjae2ldp6g2mmwf3ypqpvemhxue69uhkv6tvw3jhytnwdaehgu3wwa5kuef0dec82c33x3hxkctcdd68x7tg8yensam6xphry7ttvajx5wf5xekhqdthxcersar4vsc8gutsd3crymn6w4jxc7nv0fekzde4va4r20mzwfhkzerrv9ehg0t5wf6k24qgca2, the base money supply is growing 12.7% per year. That means you money is worth half as much in 6 years. Wow!
