I spent a short contract working for Number 10 Downing Street and the Cabinet Office, in which I created tech to improve UK central government efficiency.
While I can’t go into too much detail about the specific projects I built - I will leave you with this:
I took three main lessons from my time there:
- Number 10 blends extraordinary and mundane like nothing else.
- The folks I met working in there are incredibly bright.
- Larry the Cat is an excellent diplomat with soft fur.
they’ll allow anyone in these days
