Teammate on most recent team gave me this parting feedback: “I learned a ton, we got lots done, our team dynamics were awesome, and I’ve never felt this kind of team feeling before.”

If your business makes software, I might be good for your business.

Consulting for many years is exactly like consultants' opinions: full of trade-offs. You get better at what you practice and worse at what you don't.

When I was a consultant, I chose to get rusty with technologies rather than with team skills — and I'd choose the same a million more times.

@gdinwiddie@mastodon.social I seem to have a general preference for this mandatory sort of option. Also I much prefer the failure modes of self-hosting, especially since I opted out (many years ago) of hardware being my problem.

@gdinwiddie@mastodon.social Yes! Very excited about it, now that it's done, including a decent-enough migration of my posts.

(Before that, I was nervous I wouldn't get it done before the old instance goes offline in a few days: https://octodon.social/@CobaltVelvet/112897672123037837)
