# Biz

The end is financial independence. The means: write everything down,
first in English, then in code. Automate it until we don't have to work
any longer.

Compounding returns are magical. Wealth is found in asymmetries.

## Goals of the workflow

- have minimal ceremony
- default to asynchrony, but allow for synchronous work when necessary
- automate the boring stuff
- standardize environments, tooling, and versions to minimize friction
  while collaborating
- support the longevity and self-sustainability of the project

Ideally, each contributor should be able to go off grid for a day or a
week or more, continue working offline, submit their work when finished,
and have no or minimal conflicts. This also refers to the resilience of
the production systems.

We should never need "out of office" email auto-replies, or urgent
contact. No pager duty, no daily stand-ups. Yes, this policy will affect
what code we write, not just how we write it; that is by design.
