alignment is the new bottleneck in building great products — inspired by a great talk from @Mappletons (shoutout @aiDotEngineer @swyx)

@github are seeing it, we are too.

a static spec can't anchor a fast-moving product. it creates an alignment tax:

- building on stale context

- circling on settled decisions

- mornings in syncs instead of deep work

the fix isn't more process. it's a spec that updates when your product does — signals attached, context current.

open it and you're reading what's true now, not six weeks ago.

that's what frees up time for building exceptional products, what we're about at @propane_ai.
