One of the key influencers of decision making with regards to design from an architectural point of view is the orientation of any building in relation to the sun. The sun provides an immense amount of info about the world. Using that as a guide to work with, instead of against.
So we can look at how art, and photography is heavily influenced by the same concept. Where is the light coming from? How does that create depth? How does it create a relationship between the user and their content.
When we design applications at #moonlit we take this into consideration. We want to be informed by practices other than our own. We get to go and harvest the riches of fields much older than our own.
Just have a listen to the immense amount of wisdom and knowledge from someone who builds houses and plans according the phases of the sun in relation to his geographical location.
This is the kind of content that brings me joy!

Game theory:
Pros: Gives you a frame of reference to evaluate information, even if partially correct.
Cons: Gives you false confidence in your assessment of others.
Where does it fail? It gives you a static understanding of a dynamic situation.
If you're an excellent communicator and the person across from you isn't one, you can dynamically convert their frame of reference without much effort. Do you want an example?
Ok, let's take the concept of Russell Conjugation and test it. Finish with a Nietzche example.
Making a sales pitch can cause some people to perspire, others to sweat, and the lucky few can glow. See that? It's 3 different ways to describe sweat. The contextual usage of visual queuing makes it emotionally appealing or repellant.

The problem with a hierarchy is that when it gets deeply corrupted, and you are at the top, you become the bottom very quickly. This explains the complete lack of accountability by the Biden gov and US military.
A good hierarchy is one of transparent accountability to the inner circle. That conversation auto corrects small errors. Thus, the message can fan out loud and clear across the organization.
Once it’s corrupt you see the lack of trust manifest. Now you gotta lie and cover up things. Not because you are trying to right a wrong, but because you have found yourself in the prisoner’s dilemma.

A lot of people can't distinguish between different types of information. The most common is the inability to tell the difference between instructive information and factual information.
Second note, facts have a shelf life. They are not forever (time) true nor infinitely (space) true. What is true in one instant of time in one location may not be true somewhere else or even the same place at a different time.
Most often when someone disagrees with a take I offer, it's because they take my instructive bits of information and seek to compartmentalize it into factual boxes. It doesn't fit, because it's not MEANT to fit that way.

Some COVID/Vaccine thoughts.
I’m not an evolutionary biologist but I can deduce the following problem set and from it make predictions. Open to error correction of course. Novel biological agent released globally. Mutations start upon first interaction with patient 0.
We’ve got multiplicity problems here. The virus is an infinity problem. The immune system is another infinity problem. A person in isolation is a different creature to model compared to someone who is interacting with society at large.
When you engage with the enemy, it learns from you. If you vaccinate in phases, you give the virus the opportunity to learn and adapt. This isn’t rocket science. It’s just evolving as it would. When a person gets a vaccine, they don’t become immune instantly.

Ok, because I have a habit of calling it like it is. There's an FUCKEN ugly side of the Afghan collapse NO one will speak on. Partly because they are afraid, they don't know or don't want to appear racist. But I will say it because it needs to be understood in the greater context
Wanna know HOW the internal structure of the society has ZERO backbone to fight off the invasion? The immune system is SEVERELY compromised. Want proof? Ok, ask any Muslim Afghan what they think of the Taliban.
What are the likely answers YOU will get in closed quarters when there are no others around?
The Taliban aren't Muslims. They are JEWS trained by the Americans to make ISLAM look bad. Yes, folks, the internal truth of the VAST majority of the Muslim believers is EXACTLY that.

Lessons from Afghanistan:
A few years ago I had a great conversation with Mike Driver on #RiskyConversations about the misapplication and misunderstanding of game theory. Since that time, I've come to refine my grasp of the concept.
Mike's initial idea was that game theory is fundamentally flawed because it locks you into a closed-loop engagement while in NO way guaranteeing that your interlocutor will comply with the same restriction.
In the years since I've come to realize that this idea is very accurate IF you apply it in the process of creation. Creation of value, creation of ideas, creation of companies, products, etc. Why is that? It's because creating things, finding solutions is better
