Thanks ICP for publishing this essay on #Ritamic Decision Policy. Into year-3 of this series, this post summarizes manthan, research and study of the Vedic origins of sustainable decision policy and strategy, with contemporary examples all can relate to.
Post focuses on sustainable policy to make not one, but a series of interconnected decisions over time.
Can ideas of Vedanta be applied here?
short ans: Y.
Content is of interest to those making gov or private policy, designers, startups, #Ganita/stem students, young parents.

The post is divided into 7 sections with links to each at the top. Those who simply want a easy-to-remember idea of Ritamic decision policy can go to the examples- read how Air India altered its DEL-SFO route in harmony with Ritam. flightradar24.com/blog/wp-conten…

She Said: The origin story of the #MeToo campaign 🙄🙄, or a version of it wsws.org/en/articles/20…
"She Said is a bland, stilted work largely without genuine dramatic life or energy. No element of ambiguity or complexity is allowed to intrude. Whatever conceptions and prejudices the viewer enters with, he or she leaves with."
Yes: I agree that both #ambiguity and #complexity are needed for intelligent art. Also, it is only intelligent art which can examine, and possibly change, people's prejudices. Not propaganda for cancel culture or whatever. 😏
"We build the geometry directly by thinking about the PATH that our 3D printer takes. There's no intermediate slicing software [to render CAD as "2D" layers]."

"You can start to think about surface textures - like spikes that you can't do with a traditional slicer. Or...here's a path that's a sine wave, but every other layer is rotated. Or...one creature is following THIS path, and the other is chasing it around."

Okay. So I haven't slept for 2 days, I'm running on Adderall, Coffee and Cheeeeeescake, Gromit.
Now that I set the stage, I need to document some stuff here before I crash. Because: I'm seeing things 'from my archives matching realtime' that I need to save before, 'smoked'.

Can computational methods assess the #sentiment of complex texts? In an article with my fabulous colleagues from the @WZB_Berlin, @unipotsdam @LMU_Muenchen @JungeAkademie, we answer this question by applying #dictionary and #scaling methods on a sample of #literature reviews🧵
The article is also a practical #guide to help researchers select an appropriate #method and degree of preprocessing for their own data. Our #corpus consisted of 6.041 summaries of reviews of contemporary German #literature acquired from @perlentaucher00 (2/9)
The linguistic #complexity of #literature reviews differ from other texts with regard to their #language-- ambiguity, irony, metaphors, etc.-- are comparatively difficult to capture with #computational approaches. So how did our different methods fare? (3/9)
Can one combine agent-based modelling (ABM) with qualitative comparative analysis (QCA)? For the past few days, we’ve attempted such a mixing of methods. Three teams worked on different prototypes @lorentzcenter. A thread about some of our findings. 👇 #complexity
Why combine QCA & ABM? QCA shows configurations of conditions that co-occur with an outcome (i.e., is case-based) but not the mechanisms that drive the outcome. QCA is also (mostly) static. ABM is dynamic, highlights the mechanisms but misses the configurational, case-based bit.
The two main challenges: (1) QCA runs on a set-theoretical approach to causality; ABM runs on vector causality. (2) QCA reconstructs what has happened; ABM simulates what could happen given a set of assumptions. There are technical challenges, too, of course.
Finally, the #GoldacreReview is published! (During Parliamentary Easter holidays, mid-ping-pong on the #HealthAndCareBill...)

One must learn Crisis Management from Military leaders and Geostrategic Affairs Experts.
Leadership, management and entrepreneurship can all benefit from wargaming and decision-making did on the battlefield.

#MacNamara is right about three things when he sums up a crisis situation
1. Misinformation exacerbates a crisis
2. Emotionalism can ruin strategic decision-making
3. First information received in the event of a crisis is always wrong leading to an error of judgement
