  1. @paul_tunney Some samurais have all the fun.
  2. Ugh. Opthalmologist dilated my eyes a tad too much. Wearing sunglasses now in basement. No driving!
  3. @cory_foy And you ask a great question, dude. That's what I wanna do.
  4. @cory_foy There are plenty of little "systems" that mostly help the whole thing evolve. Random examples: jUnit, TDD, Twitter, Open Space.
  5. @cory_foy There, I said it. Let the Rationalists pounce on me again. :)
  6. @cory_foy In my wacky belief system, the whole thing is trying to evolve toward more courage, leadership, samurainess all the time, anyway.
  7. @cory_foy Are you certain that's the likely outcome? Are you certain we don't get lots of important incremental wins along the way?
  8. Sometimes what a lone samurai on a sluggish team is really looking for is escape velocity courage.
  9. @cory_foy Now I diverge a tad to consciousness, discipline, and resisting the gravitational pull of dullards: http://buddhismweb.org/?cat=6
  10. @cory_foy And they step up a little, so I show them more, and so on. But I want higher-bandwidth systems for doing that.
  11. @chzy Roger that.
  12. @cory_foy Ah. FWIW, when I expose candidate samurais to cool practices, tools, communities, and courageous choices, they say Cool! Wow!
  13. @chzy Dunno details yet. Prolly midday. Ish. :)
  14. @cory_foy So my definition of a true servant-leader-samurai is that they don't ask that question. They keep sticking out neck reflexively.
  15. Hmm. Updated Eclipse (been awhile) and this build cannot find several plugin update sites that my browser sees just fine. Whassup?
  16. @GeePawHill Zackly my point. Us findees are the growers, or it won't get done.
  17. @chzy Yup, the whole famn damily, with pals, Sunday. :) Will you be around?
  18. @flowchainsensei Yeah, I love Whittaker in that movie. King of cruel deadpan.
  19. @cory_foy In particular I am interested in Artisanal Learning Ordeals. Gauntlets and thru-hikes. Grow, challenge, and shift people.
  20. @cory_foy No I'm saying let's together devise better learning systems to grow communities of samurais. Heck with finding em. Grow em.
