Fuck the meetings. Send the specs.

01Why this matters

This is the operating rule that distills 80% of how PJ actually works: - Async over sync - Written specs over verbal meetings - Ship-and-iterate over discuss-and-defer - Operator-time-cost is the real budget; meetings burn it without compounding - A spec is reusable and shareable; a meeting is one-shot evaporation

02How to apply

Read the doctrine. Apply it on the next ship cycle.

03The closer

PJ-named 2026-05-08 morning during a SideGuy OS spec paste. The single-line operating rule for SideGuy collaboration — async over sync, written specs over real-time meetings, ship-and-iterate over discuss-and-defer. Sharp, memorable, doctrine-grade. Save and use as the back-pocket line when conversations drift toward meeting-heavy process.
