1/2 How much autonomy is really needed? The amount that is needed to compensate the inflexibility of the structure of the organization. Autonomy is a form of variety amplification, in some regards, to match the requisite variety. #cybernetics #lean #systemsthinking

Software is not complex… The act of creating it and the act of using it are. #ux #agile

The rules and policies we establish are basically variety attenuators. But if they lack the requisite variety, they fail. The additional requisite variety should come from the autonomy of the worker in an organization to prevent total breakdown. #complexity

In this regard, poka yoke devices are information carrying mediums and thus also should be viewed ultimately as uncertainty reducers. #ThursdayThoughts #lean #pokayoke #sixsigma

There is no root cause for a complex problem, but a complex “web” of causes 🕸. Quine’s idea of web of belief makes a lot of sense. #FridayThoughts #complexity

Thesis – The triad of Thesis, Antithesis & Synthesis (TAS) is a caricature of Hegel’s Dialectics.
Antithesis- Actually, TAS is a quite useful representation, even though Hegel didn’t write about it.
Synthesis- Hegel is phenomenal. #Philosophy #Hegel— Harish Jose (@harish_josev) April 23, 2019
The less you know, the more you think you know. The more you know, the less you think you know. Dunning-Kruger and its corollary.#mondaythoughts
