Love to see @Alex_Danco writing about loops!
Thermodynamics and systems clearly is very promising vein to draw on in studying loops--so great to see Danco dive into the Carnot cycle and transfer learn principles of loops

One of the odd questions is why thermodynamics and systems analysis were never really merged in with the groups studying these kinds of loops in business context over last half century

way through. With all the attendant issues.
But my personal theory is slightly different. I think that the mechanisms by which loops operate and even some atomic components transfer well. But there are key differences that made people not merge them together. But that normalized

out would have been very fruitful.
The largest of which to me is that there are different rules of physics for the different forms of "capital". Like Danco mentions in his essay, I also find myself often discussing this area with @eugenewei, especially re:social capital

And it's pretty clear that social capital operates *almost* like financial capital. But then the alignment breaks in some ways--that end up being major given networks/loops sensitivity to any deltas.
So one could argue that you need to identify the laws of physics ineach capital

type before being able to model their respective loops cleanly. For social capital my personal view is that the two differences are semi-fungibility and staking. For other forms of capital there are different physics.
Of course the other path is to focus on it from a process

standpoint. Which is how Danco begins to poke at in this essay. What are the principles of loops? What are the mechanisms by which they operate? How do their scopes interlock? What are the sub-atomic components of them?

@onecaseman that led to our reforge course on growth loops.
I'm huge fan of seeing more people diving into it. Because everyone approaches it with different frame of reference, but is mostly talking about same phenomenon. So always very interesting to see how they structure it

Haha, this is too far down the abstraction rabbit hole though. Which I'm banned from writing about still haha.
but yes, go read Danco's post!

Ugh what a great paragraph. I agree completely of course
