Moved

We rush around like water in a funnel collectively moving towards the same general area only to be thrust out into the void falling and changing. We may never contact anything solid on the other side instead perhaps being added to a relatively slow moving mass.

I've moved now to a new home. Adjustments were made and things became important that previously I was unaware were capable of surfacing. I am now looking for another place to live as this one is no longer available.

Time is always at our door compressing our surroundings and digitizing our experiences. When you have enough time it moves slowly and languidly. When you are pressed for time, it races and dodges. It requires great effort to grab it by its tail and rein it in, bend it to your will and fill its volume with more than it was prepared to accept.

Time, Cost and Quality. The triangle that is almost never equilateral. At certain times the triangle gets inverted, especially in times of economic dysfunction. When you must promise to get more done in less time than a competitor. We are not spending money to speed up the development, but instead saving money to speed up the development.

The only victim is poor old overlooked quality. Always seeming to get the short end of the stick.

Time is moving and we generally need something moving to get us moving. When you are pressed for time sometimes you just have to move regardless of the outcome. Take your best guess and keep moving.
