A continual process for managing a resonant spec for a product.
- A continual process for managing a resonant spec for a product.
- The resonant spec is all of the fractal clarity necessary for the thing to be coherent.
- What it is and how it works and why it works, all increasingly aligned.
- Keep a list of principles, from big to small.
- Every principle that comes later in the list must nest underneath the ones that come earlier.
- Look at the actions and decisions you or the system have made.
- Keep the ones that were surprising at the time.
- Systematize that list into your formal principles.
- Ensure that everything below the principle in the list is in line with it.
- If a given assertion appears to be load-bearing multiple times, promote it up the stack.
- If lower-level assertions conflict, then adapt it to fit.
- A sifting process for principles.
- This can make sure the artifact is default-converging.
- Useful for human teams… and working with LLMs too!
