Episode 01|About the operator

Synopsis

A bar owner on the San Antonio Riverwalk gets tired of paying for software that almost fits. He starts writing his own: a point of sale feed that texts him staff activity, a hiring funnel with encrypted paperwork, payroll for the family's ice bar, a marquee screen that takes kiosk orders, scanners that watch prediction markets all night.

Every build is logged. Nothing here is a mockup. If it is in the catalog, it is running for a real business, and the first customer was always him.
