installed https://jrnl.sh this morning to play around with. I so badly need to jot things down more—my mind is a frayed cheescloth lately. So far pretty frictionless, it’s always there to accept thoughts. Kinda want to cast from the cli too. But will I stick with it? Anyone tried this in concert with their obsidian vault?

Service based industries like graphic design or architecture tend to contract clients in one of two ways: fixed fee or hourly. I’ve worked at both (as an architect) here are my thoughts. Fixed fee: Puts the onus on the company to streamline their service and be efficient with their time. Motivation is to increase productivity to scale profit—do more with less, take home more profit. The risk is a runaway design-first ego that backslides progress. If something is outside scope, additional services need to be negotiated, which often times makes people uncomfortable (silly but true). Hourly: Easy to manage, easy to track, but is only scalable by working more hours (more employees or more burnout). There’s no motivation to be more efficient with your time. Given a fixed hourly work week, profit is static. You can’t bill hours twice, so finishing a project early and starting a new one is the same as just working more hours on the first.

There’s a rough estimate that architects are directly involved in only 2% of the houses built in the US. Whose eating that pie?
