This article is going to evolve and be updated. I likely won’t announce all of the changes.
Here’s an early (Loom) video — “take one” of the Future-Now problem…
When the idea of what is available right NOW is blurred among the ideas of the FUTURE.
This means you can’t differentiate between what is feasible TODAY from what is not ready for prime time.

A short note to point folks at Seth Godin’s recent podcast about Project Debt. He covers some great topics:
- Technical Debt — Seth covers it well but missed a major cause of technical debt. That being the shortcuts that are taken to meet deadlines and requirements — with the hope/fantasy that we’ll go back and do them right later (hint: we never do).
- Project Debt
- Why saying NO to those simple things may be the best thing. For some hints on how to do that see Say No With Grace.
Give it a listen on Overcast (my fave) or Apple Podcasts.

I like what you've done here Fraser. Trust is incredibly valuable and finding ways to incentivize the right behaviours, monetize those things that are appropriate, and how these payments are applied is crucial.
