This is my attempt to slowly come back.
I've been trying not to disconnect, but I also don't want to be too involved in everything that is happening.
"Technology has become the spinal cord of government. ... Just look at DOGE's approach. When they began cutting across the government, where did they go first? Not to policy offices, not to secretary suites, not to planning departments. They went directly to the levers of IT systems and operations."
After almost a year mostly using IG Stories and Reels I forgot how to use platforms like Bluesky.

Our appeal to the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board seeks to hold the administration accountable for its actions and defend the rule of law.
Getting ready for our panel- You can carry on where 18F left off! #CfASummit
"Former 18F director Lindsay Young ... is concerned that Doge’s cuts will have long-lasting effects on government functions. 'In government, it’s just so much easier to tear things down than it is to build things up,' Young said." @not-young.bsky.social

I wrote about my favorite project that I worked on at @alt18f.bsky.social (minus the "alt"). It's about prototyping, learning from users, and the power of great product owners. It's also about what's missing, now that 18F isn't out there doing this anymore. matthenry.fyi/posts/the-be...

“There was a real deep philosophy behind the work that [18F was] doing, a real deep sense of intentionality, and a real deep commitment to delivering the best possible outcome for the American taxpayer.” (Side note: Our commitment still stands. 🇺🇸)
Buenos días ☀️
Amigo que disfrutes mucho!
Linda tarde
For those who are following my moving saga, I finally finished it today. It only took me from 2023 until now.
"'Anyone can make something look nice,' the employee said. But following the correct protocols to ensure government systems don’t break 'is a lot more complicated. And I don’t think [DOGE agents] care about it at all.'"
I started this project back in 2021, but I never really finished anything. I spent some time last week and this week to finally work on a first iteration. edtorr.com
Once 18F, always 18F ✊
We had a heartfelt team going away call for 18F last week. I think it finally hit and I’m so angry and sad. So many committed folks doing amazing work and I’ll miss them all. The culture @alt18f.bsky.social built is a testament to everyone who passed through over the years.
