Edge of Chaos Minimum Viable Response
Sensor network. ACTIVATE! Form of LOTS OF CONVERSATIONS about WTF is happening out there.
Those informal networks... get them moving ideas around on the edges.
Where do you find hope now?
How much are you trying to live through this... instead of trying to live in it?
One of the potential problems with the stages of acceptance is that one might imaging that the current crisis is some monolithic thing that one must come to accept... and yet it is more like waves of many changes & challenges one must face, each acceptance revealing another set.
Imagine the USA going to war... and insisting that it is up to each of the 50 individual states to obtain rifles, tanks and planes, from the free market, to arm the soldiers they are sending to the front lines.
I know... that is hard to imagine...
The “irony” (not sure it is ironic) of any over focus on Resource Efficiency is that it interferes with Flow Efficiency, which increases Work in Process making Resource Effeciency goals more difficult to achieve...
It is looking at things for a long time that ripens you and gives you a deeper meaning.

If I understand COVID-19’s disease progression... the symptoms appear 2-14 days after exposure (infection). If the peak if IDENTIFIED cases is in ~14 days... those people are already infected and walking around.

Wanna know a weak signal for transformational failure?
Others.
(notice that the existence of others often shuts down conversation and exploration…)
All photographs are memento mori. To take a photograph is to participate in another person’s (or thing’s) mortality, vulnerability, mutability. Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it, all photographs testify to time’s relentless melt.

Your automated deployment pipeline is a choke point for injecting behaviors into your developers...
Time is that wherein there is opportunity, and opportunity is that wherein there is no great time. Healing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity.

To reproduce competency in organizations... an organization needs not only the ability to improve, but the ability to judge the competence being improved. “Know-how" isn’t simply knowing how something is done, it is also the judging of both the product and the production.
I mean... how hard is it to understand the difference between “the hospital is always full” and “the hospital is over flowing with infectious patients and EVERYONE need to wear masks”
...resist the ineluctable temptation of transcendence, endure the proximity of chaos, victoriously traverse the Acheron...
—Badiou
Right about now you’ll be figuring out if you work for a learning organization... (or not)
Now for something more... light hearted?
Think of it like a global game of hide and seek... except when you are tagged, you might die, be hospitalized or suffer permanent lung damage.

Boris Johnson talked about continuing to "shake hands" w/people while visiting them in the hospital, DESPITE the fact many of them had #COVID19 & according to him "no scientific proof" it could spread like that. Today, he tested POSITIVE. #CoronaLockdown

COVID-19 is non-sentient, it can’t make decisions... it doesn’t “continue to spread”
HUMANS continue to spread COVID-19 by: touching their faces w/ contaminated hands... touching contaminated surfaces... interacting with each other in public... etc.
