As occupations and industries specialize in a given social problem (eg health, crime, education) they become responsible for a broader range of tasks because science reveals the problem to be more complex than previously imagined.

Situationaly speaking information overload is a sign of novices
Their pattern seeking engine focus on the symbols and wether the system is in order or disorder
Which consumes their pattern order category and relationships brain bandwidth.

Chess players dont see 32 pieces and 64 squares
They can see territory control, weak flanks, powerful moves, leverage positions.
Detecting anomalies effectively efficiently and efficaciously.
Prophylaxis is the ultimate strength.

In a time of high uncertainty complexity and disruption
Hyperspecialization becomes highest risk to do
Polymaths think transdisciplinarily

If you mix subjects you get better results than hyper specialized work
But once you realize there has been no borders between specializations all along, you dissolve the borders problems dissolve.
Impactful solutions emerge.

The highest level of curiosity isnt simply stepping outside of the box
Rather, its realizing the box is an illusion all along.
The world is one integrated “thing” rather than perfectly isolated “things”

Our brain is an unstoppable idea generation machine
A pattern recognition using symbols (like language) to find order in the unknown, often by categorizing reality and finding relationships
Categories in our brain helps, categorizing the world (black and white thinking) hurts.

Five brain friendly pillars to understand systems
Identify the parts (symbols)
Group them into functions (categories)
Observe the behavior (patterns)
Map the process (order)
Analyze impacts (relationships)
Tracey Tokuhama-Espinosa work and my twist learning to systems thinking.

I hate “hacks” and “tips” but if there is one
From almost every book on performance focus and productivity on this planet
This few books would give you 95% of what you will ever learn

ChromaDB segfaults
I started investing data to my ChromaDB
From distinct processes
It did run to corrupt state, its no longer possible to even .get()
I will have to just use the sqlite to rebuild the database.
I didn’t think chroma is not multi process safe.
