My 2022 year in review. Basically a personal thread of stuff I published academic and non-academic, some things I did, people I met... First in the year was with my advisor, @psmaldino, a review paper "Organizational Development as Generative Entrenchment."

Asked is why do organizations look the same? What human constraints lead to the emergence of an organization's group-level traits?

Schank & Wimsatt (1986): Generative Entrenchment and Evolution. A paper on adaptive hierarchy.
In 1962, Herbert Simon proposed a lock analogy to explain the natural selection of problem solving.
Consider a complex problem space as a lock with 10^10 possible combinations. Image Due to the randomness of the problem space, problems of this type are difficult, if not near-impossible, for problem solvers to solve (in fact, if the problem is "solved" it is only done so through randomness).
Luckily, in nature, most problems are not completely indecomposable.
