#cybernetics — Public Fediverse posts

Deze week hebben we Brain of the Firm afgerond met het bespreken van hoofdstukken 18, 19 en 20. Daarmee hebben we nu ook een mijlpaaltje aangetikt sinds onze eerste sessie twee jaar geleden!

Volgende maand beginnen met The Heart of Enterprise. Wil je meedoen? Meld je aan, door bijvoorbeeld te reageren op deze post, of anders een email te sturen naar info [at] cybernetica [punt] nu.

Having now finished Brain of the Firm, I’m extra saddened with the fall of the Allende government, today in 1973.

Incredible things were achieved in project Cybersyn, with extremely limited means, only to be destroyed by the Pinochet junta.

Gaia hypothesis (Evolution 🧬)

The Gaia hypothesis, also known as the Gaia theory, Gaia paradigm, or the Gaia principle, proposes that living organisms interact with their inorganic surroundings on Earth to form a synergistic and self-regulating complex system that helps to maintain and perpetuate the conditions for life on the planet. The Gaia hypothesis was formulated by the chem...

I wrote last week into my "Cruella De CyberSIN" piece that #tech has a lineage problem and is, in effect, a first-order shouting match.

Elon and Sam just publicly proved me right at an altitude that induces vertigo in me.

This is what happens when first-order thinkers build billion dollar companies. That's really all I have to say.

❝THE SOCIAL COMPACT❞

❝If then we discard from the social compact what is not of its essence, we shall find that it reduces itself to the following terms:

I settled on the acronym BIOS to suggest the vital elements of life in society, a life in association with others, and not just any association but one whose flickers of life are sustained for more than a few vicissitudes of history. Sustainability in that life requires democracy, a society based on a distinctive form of social compact.
