The challenge is that the option to use money to resolve issues fast becomes to a tendency to resort to the conveniences of money. This tendency censors me from meaning embedded in everyday life, and it's something i have to work to avoid.

Not even getting to the part about all the sacrifices I've made to make this money.


jira offers task linking, which I don't think notion does.


Jira is a bug tracker.

Notion is a hierarchical note-taker/wiki with some additional features like simple databases, task lists etc.

They are not the same kind of software.

Also, you can link notion pages. They have a block element that is a link to another page and for inline links you can use the regular link (each notion page has its unique, stable url).


Notion does but it's not well implemented. If you copy a link to a notion document and paste it in another it does create a link. Wish they made it a little more well defined though (I don't want to copy a link and paste it).


I love the phrasing of 'barriers to anti-quality' as a way to bring attention to this particular category of (rampant) problem. It reminds me of that saying 'under extreme pressure we tend not to rise to our ideals, but fall back on what we know.'

I work on 3-12 month projects in an agency, we don't really do Scrum. It's mostly some version of waterfall, and occasionally dual-track agile. Generally the process of determining what to build is squeezed into the cracks. I just recently built about 40% of a prototype for a SaaS in a couple weeks with fractional team input, and then had to lay out the rest of the flows in a week. After that, more needs popped up (I can only imagine the shitshow that development will be). This is the worst case scenario.

In less-worse cases, it seems like this becomes an issue of how to compare a requested change's value to its cost. Without enough data, this can be really hard to actually know well enough to have a grounded position on. It seems like consensus here is to focus on the cost of the change, rather than the potential value.

It also seems like there's little faith in managers. I don't totally know what it's like out there for ya'll though.


I disagree that having doubts and/or bad impressions alone have a causal relationship to 'limiting success' for countless reasons. (1) success is over-determined and we can't identify such specific causal relationships to it. (2) plenty of people are successful for airing doubts and bad impressions. (3) plenty of people that aren't successful for airing these things, also still display a capacity for having and airing them. I'm interested to see what happens with Musks's Pravduh.com
