begin roughly

• I don’t have time, I already have too many projects, someone is more qualified than me, etc.
• Those are not reasons not to start.
• Even if you can’t turn 0 into 1, you should first turn it into 0.1
• And sharing that information, signaling
• When someone comes along who can give an effort of about 0.2, the choice is to pile on top of that 0.1 or to turn the 0 into a 0.2.
• The benefit is greater when stacking on top of 0.1, so that is the choice.
• Cases that don’t work
  • If you have to understand and follow the rules set by your predecessor in order to build on top of 0.1, it’s a hassle, so you want to create a new one.
  • Signaling intensity is low and not getting through to the right people.
  • I thought I set it to 0.1, but it’s -0.1.

Miscellaneous #The more important the project, the more messy it starts.
