Notes from the operations floor.

What I'm learning while agents run the businesses. Entries grow like a garden: sprout, growing, evergreen.

  1. growing

    What running AI agents taught me

    Field notes from running AI agents as employees. The failures are polite, the logs are honest, and the human yes is still the product. Every failure in here is real, pulled from my own systems.

    Why I killed an 11,000 subscriber newsletter

    A shutdown postmortem. The audience grew, the model never did, and the hardest operator call is the one where nothing is on fire.

  3. evergreen

    The approval queue pattern

    AI agents do the daily work. Publishing, list sends, and ad spending need my approval.
