We talked with the team before this went up --- originally, it had people's full names on it, which nobody liked. I think a lot of people here have had bad experiences in other company cultures that don't apply here; we're a profoundly bottom-up team (we don't have product managers, ICs [across the board] own chunks of the roadmap, EMs don't assign work) and signing names to things that get done probably makes more sense here than it does elsewhere.

That's not to say we don't have internal dysfunctions, or that we don't do things that annoy engineers. Just that that our dysfunctions are different.

Weekly feels right to me. We'll see how it goes.
