2. We often forget about legacy data or de-prioritize the impact of changes in data management practices. RDA brought about many data changes. While most of those are not significant as they do not deal with formatting of data, some do change the expectation for data.
3. Any variation in expected data (e.g., 260 vs. 264) can cause issues. An 007/008 expectation for media or 336-338 fields which may not appear in older records. You can't build facets and search parameters on what doesn't exist.
4. Other changes in practice impact #ILS migration, too, such as the preference of a single record for all formats. That really was a workaround for ILS who couldn't aggregate or FRBRize data displays for formats. #migration #systems #data #metadata #cataloging #ILS

We start with a talk by SFI President David Krakauer:
"Would anyone care to guess why we're so GOOD at building transistors and so CRAP at designing drugs?"
"This thing [points to transistor] lives in a centralized system. This thing [points to cancer drug] lives in US."

"I'm going to pick on economics, because we like to do that at SFI. 'Ooh, look at that cover! So techy. Global, heat maps...' But here's 'Networks' [in the textbook]. THAT'S IT. Here's '#ComplexityEconomics.' NOTHING."

@boblautenbach @Alan_L_Lovejoy @Ryu_Zoku Actually #ZokuTalk adopts the portion of SWIFT #EBNF for #Unicode as they seems have done good job on that, as well as parts of the EBNF for numerics such as "1_234.00" to expand privative data types entry.

Actually the numeric formats are one of more complicated part of the #EBNF of #ZokuTalk and the only non-#MOBS (#Messages #Objects #Block #Syntax) part of the evolved syntax.

"policymakers&many transition-scholars have too high hopes that ‘green’ innovation will be sufficient to bring about low-carbon transitions.Future agendas in research&policy should therefore pay much more attention to the #destabilization&#decline of existing fossil fuel regimes"
"The specific contribution ... is to conceptualize regime stability as the outcome of active resistance by incumbent actors. Furthermore, the paper will discuss various ways in which these actors use power and politics to resist fundamental transitions to new low-carbon #systems"
Here's a post refactoring causal layered analysis with systems lens. By linking the four layers through a #systems lens, we have a better idea of the systems intervention that we might need.

Myths and metaphors lead to worldviews through framing and planning assumptions. Deep stories are the base for which we view the world.
Could those planning assumptions be changed?
Could those planning assumptions be changed?
Worldviews get translated to causes, through policies and strategies. Could those strategies be tweaked?
Hence the absolute need to get out of this voluntary submission system established for at least 300 years.

As a group size increases, individuals tend to become increasingly less productive
Consider a tug of war. As more people are involved, their average performance tends to decrease because each participant feels that their own effort is not critical
