  1. The next time your team reaches for a simple mental model to solve a complex financial problem remember that Ratan Tata built a massive empire by refusing to separate the numbers from the system that produces them. The teams willing to sit with that discomfort are the ones still standing when the simple models finally break.

  2. PRODUCTHEAD: AI usage and the ‘bottleneck’

    » In complex human systems the constraint is often policy, mindset, or coordination, not a single bottleneck

    » Being the “human in the loop” means having genuine authority, time to think, and understanding the bigger picture well enough to question the system

  7. The most consequential work of the toDō rebuild often looked insignificant: clearer hierarchy, better confirmation, haptic response, or transition explaining the changes.

    They mattered because tasks, reminders, notifications, notes, tags, NanoDos, calendars, widgets, and Live Activities had become one system of relationships. The user needed to understand those relationships without stopping to decode them.

  8. One person’s solution is another person’s problem.

    That’s not a bug. It’s how requirements move through organizations.

    Every layer solves a problem and creates a new one for the next layer.

    #AI is accelerating this process dramatically.

    #AgileCheese embraces it. We don’t optimize solutions. We optimize problem propagation.

    The fastest way to solve a problem is to make it somebody else’s problem.

    That’s why #agile scales so well.

    And that’s where the #cheese comes from. 🧀🔥 #SystemsThinking

  13. Is Conway's Law just a hunch? Or is it a law? Conway didn't include a proof in 1968.

    However, decades later, research from the automotive/aerospace industries and the software industry tells a different story.

    If organisations are misaligned with the product architecture, they will have quality problems and decision latency.

  18. Sometimes good solutions do not work because they are solving the wrong problem. That idea became the starting point for my book, Thirst for Reality. It is a practical nonfiction book about seeing problems more clearly, finding stronger solutions, working with contradictions and systems, and testing ideas against reality. The book is still in progress. It will have 12 chapters, and the first 8 are already available on Leanpub: https://leanpub.com/thirst-for-reality #SystemsThinking #ProblemSolving #DecisionMaking #AI

  21. 📖 New Atlas–Rosetta publication:

    Paper 0B — The Curiosity Layer
    The Question That Wouldn't Go Away

    Before Atlas. Before Rosetta. Before frameworks, papers, or formal models.

    Just a recurring question that followed me for more than 30 years:

    Why do some mathematical structures seem familiar across very different disciplines?

    This essay explores the curiosity that ultimately led to Atlas–Rosetta and how modern AI transformed a long-standing question into something that could finally be investigated.

    Not a theory paper.

    Not a framework paper.

    A history paper.

    How three decades of scientific curiosity, modern AI, and a determination not to fool myself gradually became the Atlas–Rosetta research framework.

  31. The Second Thinking Space

    This article explains why I use artificial intelligence not as a substitute for thinking, but as a second thinking space. Based on the idea that complex structures are rarely understood from within a single perspective, AI serves as a means of exploration, pattern recognition, intellectual challenge, and perspective expansion. The goal is not automation, but deeper insight into the hidden structures that shape decisions, organisations, and human behaviour.

  38. How Resilient is Cambridge wrapped up yesterday. (Actually, three weeks ago. It was a lot, I've been recovering from it.)

    We wrote a report summarising all our findings. It came out pretty well and I encourage you to check it out, but I'll summarise the take aways here.

  42. Today it was announced that the Major Oak has died.

    The tree was already hollow when I walked through it as a child in the 1970s.

    Perhaps we are asking the wrong question.

    Not "What killed the Major Oak?"

    But:

    "How did it continue adapting for nearly a thousand years?"

    A Boundary Dynamics analysis of persistence, resilience, and the limits of adaptation.
