Care about #effectivegovernment? Really excellent presentation on best practices for procuring and developing government software projects by @waldo.net to Michigan state legislature. Very insightful, digestible, and entertaining. (Starts at 8 min mark.) #statecapacity
Michigan did not invite *me* to testify the other day. They invited 18F! But 18F ceased to exist several days after they were invited, so I became the emergency backup option.
The private sector cannot backfill government. This does not and cannot work beyond these light-touch occasions.

Great testimony from 18F alum @waldo.net about procuring digital service teams.
This is the stuff that 18F feds were doing prior to getting fired.
