I know everyone thinks I'm a weirdo but ... the only reason I spent time during my commercial period ( about 25% of 2006-2023 ) in software was ... that I wanted to know "just enough about how software works, in order to effectively manage software operations talent".

This is pretty much the same reason I'm still studying software and math, on sabbatical. ( It's mainly a hobby, but there remains a commerciable alignment. ) Right now I'm stuck at fucking ENGLISH grammar, because it's part of the HCI stack.

This is ALSO the main reason I have no reason to use AI yet ... the problem with governance is never telling someone to do something, and having it reported back as done. The problem is always figuring out how to verify that it got done the way I wanted. There's basically no difference between managing humans, and managing anthropomorphic machines - both are black boxes, both have motivations and emotions, and both are subject to manipulation of civil and uncivil degrees.

The question is always how, not what. But, I get it ... most business people are concerned with short-term results. They want to focus on the what, get paid, and exit before the how breaks down and kicks the asset owner in the ass. Well you see, generally, I decided not to be that sort of business person. But ah, that's a lot of faff, isn't it? :)
