One of my favorite quotes: A thing is perfect, not when there's nothing left to add, but when there's nothing left to take away. - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Airman's Odyssey


How I like to motivate my team. This one was part of a message on raising billability 5% for improved cashflow. Keep in mind none of us have combat experience, and all of us use Microsoft Teams all day: Hey guys, the battle is going great. Um, the enemy is coming up the hill to…


I like to add a new company benefit each year, if I can, for my Professional Services team. Couple years ago I added birthdays off, as a vacation day. Next, I'm thinking of starting a birthday bonus. $1,000 if you're still alive next year, and the day off. I anticipate the…


Did a final punch-list walk with the design and construction team on a cool stream restoration project today. We did a bunch of cool vegetation transplants on this project. Total project cost (mostly earthwork/riprap) 1.8M. Cruised over to my favorite barbecue joint afterwards,…

I try to add one benefit a year, something little but consistent, to keep our benefits package fresh. Couple years ago I added birthdays off, for example. I thought this year we should add an additional government holiday day off, and made the mistake of asking the team for…


This is arguably great art.

Who's building the #AI assistant for software support? I don't mean chat bot, I mean like Interactive "assistant" sharing screens verbally walking you through the steps to fix it, but it's AI. Like actionable Siri. Someone want to build this for me?, I'll be the idea guy, 2 to…

i think this changed my life


Moment of late night clarity, a question that I want to ask my team this coming week: do you have a higher view of yourself, a higher sense of self-esteem, for the work that you're doing here


I gotta be honest with you all, I usually don't preheat the oven all the way before I stick my coconut toasted shrimp in there. This post IS about coconut toasted shrimp.

My burrito guy always puts the bacon on the far side, so I don't really get a well-rounded bite ever. This has been happening for a while now and I'm thinking about telling him, just not sure what to do.

Bout to f around, and turn this 4 day old homemade banana bread into French toast, stuffed with cream cheese, for breakfast. I know there's a lot of heated things going on right now, but this feels important. I believe I might be the first person to have ever done this.

this is kinda fucking me up, it really does feel like a natural part of life when you're young and then slowly it just... stops happening

A good organization focuses on correctness. A bad organization focuses on consensus.


I don't get into the mountains nearly enough these days, but happened to catch a storm perfectly on a pre-scheduled snowcat trip with the boys. So much time grinding away, building businesses, being a dad. Felt good to shred at 12,000'.

What's the phenomenon called when the song that's playing faintly in the back of my mind, almost subconsciously, is what pops up when I open Pandora radio for the first time in 3 days.


I've got an avocado that I wanted to eat that's not quite ripe yet. Everything else is in the pan...has anyone ever cooked an avocado before? Am I going to instantly go to Mexican hell or something?
