# home maker "we do appreciate your bus\[iy]ness" I wonder if we've been conceiving of "business" backwards? like, institutionally? using a wide brush here: when one is "busy", they're unavailable for interaction actually here, first, please go read ["throughput evolution wtf"](/2025/08/16/throughput-evolution-wtf.md) *** welcome back! okay, what if a "business" is the container we set up for others, en masse, to slot into their 90% time? given the subjective nature of that 90/9/1 ratio series from the interior, and given how time-perception *doesn't* work during engaged "busyness", I *think* "business" instances could scale elastically in a way that allows market participation by anyone who wants to run one okay - that's just the setup what if a "business" works better as a home? powered by an undifferentiated stream of observers in "busyness" mode as they rotate through your home's infrastructure, like water through a mill wheel if I stay home full-time and make my home into a scalable service offering, something patronized by others during their 90% time, but I only experience synchronized mutual engagement as being (9+1)% of my time... this creates an attention network, right? where all the nodes animate all the others? be honest, how coherent am I being right now because from here it looks like "work" is *more usefully* structured as being very, very chill --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
