Great day at JP Morgan discovering leadership qualities needed for effective teamwork #business
Built a simple search tool that does one thing. Finds local art and community creative spaces near you. No tracking. No algorithm. No noise. Just results. 🧭 ldolanldolan.github.io/Commu… #BuildInPublic #SimpleTools #RetroTech #MirthBirth

Algorithms optimise for engagement. Community Compass optimises for nothing. You type. It finds. You decide. 🧭 ldolanldolan.github.io/Commu… #AntiAlgorithm #RetroTech #mirthbirth #SimpleTools

There’s something interesting about building tools that constrain themselves. Community Compass only does local creative search. That limitation is the feature. 🧭 ldolanldolan.github.io/Commu… #ProductThinking #SimpleByDesign #MirthBirth #IndieWeb

a 28-year-old in Berlin runs a 7-agent software factory off a remote server she approves checkpoints from her phone at midnight; her workspace has no desk, no city, no fixed machine - any screen is just a terminal she quoted $28,000 for a scope a local agency priced at $74,000 and told the client 'minimum 6 weeks.' the agents shipped a validated PR in 19 hours the agency was still revising their proposal i've been running a version of this for the past few months. the setup sounds absurd until the first time it works, and then you can't go back the factory lives on a remote VPS - always on, eight tmux panes, already mid-session. ssh in from whatever screen is nearby: laptop at home, phone on a train, tablet at a café at 1am. the environment never moves. you're just a terminal window connecting to something that was already running agencies price the way they do because their overhead is structural. a $74,000 quote on a 6-week scope is real math: account managers, a senior dev who gets rotated to a bigger client by week three, revision cycles that exist because context lives in fourteen slack threads instead of one file the factory collapses all of that into a CLAUDE.md → a 100-line markdown file at the repo root loads the entire project into every new agent session - stack, architectural rules, banned patterns - so no session starts blind and no context drifts between runs → agent one is read-only: maps the existing codebase, documents patterns, flags risks before any agent touches the code → agent two writes the user story and acceptance criteria, locking the exact definition of done before engineering starts → agent three produces the technical brief: data model changes, API shapes, a precise list of every file that will move - this locks before any builder runs → backend and frontend build in parallel but in isolation, each scoped to its own directories, so they can't reach across and corrupt each other's work → agent six writes acceptance tests against the original user story criteria before the implementation is considered complete → agent seven runs a final read-only audit: missing auth, tenant isolation gaps, any deviation from the brief gets flagged back into the loop before the pr is cut → three checkpoints pause the entire chain for human approval - story, spec, pre-merge - each one a 30-second phone tap when the upstream work was done right the 19 hours is the output. what compressed was everything underneath: the pm relaying a question to an engineer who responds two days later, the architectural mistake that only surfaces after code is written, the context drift between sessions because the memory layer is a human brain instead of a file that loads before anything runs the loop closes itself. validator flags a gap, builder fixes it, verifier confirms, pr is clean by morning the agency sent their revised proposal at 9am. the pr had been merged for 14 hours she approved the final checkpoint at midnight, 30 seconds on her phone. the agents were already done the desk, the office, the fixed machine - she left them out

Community Compass — a deliberately small tool for finding local artists and creative spaces. Built on GitHub Pages. No backend. No database. Just search. Curious what people think. 🧭 ldolanldolan.github.io/Commu… #BuildInPublic #GitHubPages #mirthbirth #SideProject

I made this tool to help people reconnect with what matters — places that feel safe, kind, and real. 🌱 It’s called Community Compass. Try it if you need a break from noise: 🧭 ldolanldolan.github.io/Commu… #GentleTech #LocalSupport
