“THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM IS TO CALL THINGS BY THEIR PROPER NAME.” ― Confucius or Albert?
those who “know many little things,” draw from an eclectic array of traditions, and accept ambiguity and contradiction as inevitable features of life—than we are turning to Berlin’s hedgehogs—those who “know one big thing,” toil devotedly within one tradition, and reach for formulaic solutions to ill-defined problems
From May 2019.
( From Inside the Beltway.)
None of us is as smart as all of us?
Yet intelligence lies in the body of discourse of a network – of neurons or people – not in the isolated nodes.
As a culture, we’re only as smart as our connections & interaction rates allow.Where does that leave us? Always less than what we could be, next.
“The institution of a bio-security police state”
… and then they cancelled dissenting twitter/Facebook/YouTube accounts.
Because …. of fear, and mistrust of collective self?
How do we adapt, if we don’t trust our collective self to discuss and evaluate?An interesting perspective.
Freedom to speak? To hear? To be heard?
Freedom of assembly?
Freedom to mass communicate?
Freedom to connect?
Freedom to increase interaction rates, in order to tune feedback loops adaptively, not arbitrarily?
Fear of reaching consensus agreement?
That immediately implies factions have something to hide. And teamwork heads south.With changing context, especially population scale, all considerations change unpredictably. Ultimately, we’re faced with:
Freedom to reorganize
Existential demand to re-gear, adapt and evolve.This is not about taking sides. It’s about making a more perfect union, and surviving.
The glory (survival) really does go to those who find a better way.All this leads back to an ancient observation.
More security doesn’t make us more secure.
In fact, too much security inevitably makes us less secure, as it generates paranoia, fear & mistrust.
Only intelligent context navigation delivers survival, by making a more perfect union.
Right now, we’re distracted, confused, divided and … being far less than what we could be.
Ain’t that the truth XXXXX.

Betrothed and divine
Realisations no virtue
But who can define
Why soldiers go marching
Those masses a line
This disease is catching
From victory to stone
Ahoy! Ahoy! Land, sea and sky
Ahoy! Ahoy! Boy, man and soldier
Ahoy! Ahoy! Deceived and then punctured
Ahoy! Ahoy! Long may they die
Out of concealment
Blank and stark eyed
Why so uncertain
This culture deceives
Prophesised, brainwashed
Tomorrow’s demise
All systems failing
The placards unroll
Ahoy! Ahoy! Land, sea and sky
Ahoy! Ahoy! Boy, man and soldier
Ahoy! Ahoy! Deceived and then punctured
Ahoy! Ahoy! Long may they die

If one considers systems theory and Schumacher’s definitions of Convergent and divergent problems one sees that some DIvergent or “Wicked Problems” require a trial and error best-fit approach, this class of problem is however not ubiquitous, many problems as Schumacher and Roy Madron point out can be dissolved. This sort of theoretical approach to knowledge is very apparent in Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Establishment media narrative management and as Partick Ryan says in the Butterfly war reverse engineering and using the Silicon Teck monopoly’s own tools against its own underlying motivations is what those excluded from the magic circle should sensibly do, Adopt the same wing patterns to spoof entry. Allowing users of the Grub Street Web 3 platform to Enter or Exit through the gift shop as they desire. In generating metadata, there are a number of opportunities to produce, Summaries, Say chapter headings and paragraph subheadings, Keyword clouds, and Sentences in contexts, hence NGram is some of the focus today.Within Googles advanced search and Twitters advanced search functions users can gain a little more control over what results are served up, of course, a very large number of people wishing to give the appearance of Au Current chic, chattering class In the know “Dontcha know” types, are happily faking it til they make it which really is the American Way. Instead of first they came for the Socialists, then there was no one left these days its more, first they came for the Fred Perry polo necks, then they came for the Lacoste Sweaters, then they came for the Waitrose ready-made mealers. Of course, Selfridges, Fortnums and those with Osbourne and Little tastes have nothing to fear.“THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM IS TO CALL THINGS BY THEIR PROPER NAME.” ― Confucius- 2019
