Running
In progress
Open questions, and the ones we stopped asking.
Each of these started as a question we couldn't answer by reading. Some are still running, some got an answer, and some we parked — the parked ones say why, because that reason is usually the most useful part.

Running, parked, or answered.

[PLACEHOLDER: short name]
[PLACEHOLDER: the question it was asking]
Why it stopped. [PLACEHOLDER: the real reason — ran out of a constraint, the answer stopped mattering, a cheaper route appeared. Then: what you learned. Plain, not self-deprecating.]

Why the parked ones are here.
A list of only the things that worked isn't a record of how we work, it's a highlight reel. The decision to stop is a real part of the method — knowing when a question has stopped being worth the time is most of what keeps the finished work finished.
So the parked entries stay, with the reason attached. If you're deciding whether to hire us, that reason tells you more than another success would.
