Tech transformation, enterprise politics, and practical farm tech: JT Perry joins Justin Garrison and Autumn Nash to talk about his path from Navy submarines and enterprise IT to founding Barn Analytics. They dig into why modernization should start with a business problem—not the latest technology—and when it makes sense to leave a system alone. JT also shares how Barn Analytics uses tech to help small farms monitor chicken health and freezer temperatures.Barn AnalyticsJT's Bluesky

HIRE AUTUMN!!!The AT protocol has a fundamental different design than other social networks. There are no siloed instances and every user is associated with their own domain. As Dan likes to put it, a Personal Data Server (PDS) is more like a filesystem for your personal activity. Apps that read those files can read one type of file or many types. User identity lives outside of any one app and we go deep into it on this episode.Show notes:Anisota - A different approach to browsing social mediaFAFOFM Guests starter pack Dan’s blog(00:00) - Introduction and guest setup (01:15) - Dan’s background with Blue Sky (06:14) - What at protocol is built on (12:52) - Why at protocol matters (17:26) - At protocol vs. ActivityPub (22:31) - Identity, portability, and lock-in (30:37) - Public data, scraping, and AI (41:41) - Moderation, forks, and the future of AT protocol

Instead of turning engineers into velocity numbers she takes a holistic approach to understanding why a person or team might be over or under performing. This episode talks about lots of factors and gives you some ideas to understand what's actually going on. You probably want to check out Cat's upcoming book The Psychology of Software Teams or her recent whitepaper No Silver Bullets: Why Understanding Software Cycle Time is Messy, Not Magic.
