That type of user stories kind of makes sense tho - in not so product-savvy companies you need to make a database for some stupid reason and you got a scrum master pestering you that you need a user story for it. There are no customers

Being data driven is about dumping as many data sources as you can in your data warehouse and telling your boss how many data sources you connected this quarter ๐Ÿ˜Ž

I get it, and I agree, but my manager has the attention span of a toddler and the intellectual capacity of a chihuahua, how do you even begin to explain that to someone like that?

In both series there is also a special bond between magic users and sword users. And both are our world in the very far future. And in both there was an apocalypse that broke the world.

Also boths moms are badass warriors that fight while pregnant and die at birth. In both series we have magic users grouped into groups with unique specializations. And a Dark lord with chosen super generals. Gideon Nav? Close enough, welcome back Rand al-Thor, Dragon Reborn

If I had a penny for every series with a Jesus like redhead figure that swaps souls with their dark-eyed nemesis, and redheads original body dids in the process, and said redhead is into swords, I'd have two pennies. Which isn't a lot but it's curious... #lockedtomb #gideonnav #wheeloftime

Dumb question but is it related to novelty search as by Ken Stanley, or a completely different approach?

Honestly struggled with that a lot. And for a long time I've made it my responsibility to try to teach people to think this way. But it's also very much a lost cause most of the time. Sometimes I regret getting into systems thinking and cybernetics and mourn the lost innocence

Speaking of ELIZA - They guy who made it, Weisenbaum has an incredibly prescient book - Computer power and human reason. Almost could have been written yesterday.

Collapse is not things like that happening. It's that when they happen there is noone to fix them, or the fixes are ever shoddier and improvised

And problem is that the implications of cybernetics are very politically intractable for modern, top-down organizations.

In industry people simply don't care or don't have time, and on the higher level it's been replaced by MBA bullshit, which is much easier to learn.

In my experience, it's because it is a little bit complex and feels philosophical to people unfamiliar with it. And there is a bit of a feedback loop going on - if people don't learn about it they don't know it, which leads to people not learning about it.

Yeah, definitely. I think it's one of those things that you figure out what is good by repeatedly removing things that are bad, and you arrive at a good model? But also Beer does talk about a development directorate, whatever that is...
