Project 2027: An RFC to rebuild public tech using the economics of Open Source

I hope this post does not come off as too political or sensationalized. It is very much serious in its scope and goals.

My fundamental belief is that Open Source Software has organically created the most efficient bureaucracy the world has ever seen. We as workers decide what work gets done, and we choose our tasks extremely well. I have seen rampant mismanagement at every tech company I've ever been at, with progress being made despite management, not because of it.

I believe we can bring this same efficiency to our governance and public technology as a whole, and through that, we can begin to rebuild the internet in a public way.

Open source shouldn't be political. But it is. It always has been. And I think now is the time for us to make the case that CEOs and investors, for all their myth making, do not know how to efficiently run an economy.

We do.
