I think that's true, we have to keep reflecting on the state of our personal enlightenments. If we can do that without losing our heads and our systems thinking caps, there will be much we can do to promote the general Enlightenment of the State.On both personal and general grounds we have a stake in the projects of self‑governing systems — whether it is possible for them to exist and what it takes for them to thrive in given environments. Systems on that order have of course been studied from many points of view and at many levels of organization. Whether we address them under the names of adaptive, cybernetic, error-correcting, intelligent, or optimal control systems they all must be capable to some degree of learning, reasoning, and self‑guidance.Resources —Survey of Cybernetics • <a href="https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2024/01/25/survey-of-cybernetics-4/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2024/01/25/survey-of-cybernetics-4/</a>Survey of Differential Logic • <a href="https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2024/02/25/survey-of-differential-logic-7/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2024/02/25/survey-of-differential-logic-7/</a>Survey of Inquiry Driven Systems • <a href="https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2024/02/28/survey-of-inquiry-driven-systems-6/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2024/02/28/survey-of-inquiry-driven-systems-6/</a><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/AdaptiveSystems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AdaptiveSystems</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Cybernetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Cybernetics</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/SystemsTheory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SystemsTheory</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Governance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Governance</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Democracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Democracy</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Plato" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Plato</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Peirce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Peirce</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/MaxWeber" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MaxWeber</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Accountability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Accountability</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Representation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Representation</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Statistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Statistics</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Inquiry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Inquiry</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/InquiryDrivenSystems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#InquiryDrivenSystems</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Observation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Observation</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Expectation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Expectation</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Intention" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Intention</a>

Those people govern your life, they are your government, no matter what spheres of influence they inhabit, private or public. The only way you get a choice in that governance is if there are paths of feedback permitting you to affect the life of those decision makers and action takers in significant ways. That is what accountability, response-ability, and representative government are all about.Naturally, some people are against that.In the United States there has been a concerted campaign for as long as I can remember — but even more concerted since the Reagan Regime — to get the People to abdicate their hold on The Powers That Be and just let some anonymous corporate entity send us the bill after the fact. They keep trying to con the People into thinking they can starve the beast, to limit government, when what they are really doing is feeding the beast of corporate control, weakening their own power over the forces that govern their lives.That is the road to perdition as far as responsible government goes. There is not much of anything one leader or one administration can do unsupported if the People do not constantly demand a government of, by, and for the People.Resource ─Survey of Cybernetics • <a href="https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2024/01/25/survey-of-cybernetics-4/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2024/01/25/survey-of-cybernetics-4/</a><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/AdaptiveSystems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AdaptiveSystems</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Cybernetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Cybernetics</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/SystemsTheory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SystemsTheory</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Governance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Governance</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Democracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Democracy</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Plato" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Plato</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Peirce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Peirce</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/MaxWeber" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MaxWeber</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Accountability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Accountability</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Representation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Representation</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Statistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Statistics</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Inquiry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Inquiry</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/InquiryDrivenSystems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#InquiryDrivenSystems</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Observation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Observation</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Expectation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Expectation</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Intention" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Intention</a>

ShawnCrunch PocketsRemembering the time I went to Waffle House and ordered a waffle, and upon getting the waffle, sending it back because it was too soft and not crunchy enough, asking them to make another one. I said directly to the face of the waiter — who works at the place that fucking specializes in goddamn waffles — that their waffle wasn’t good enough. They made another one on their dime, and it was also softer than I was expecting. Why? Because I raised myself on goddamn toaster waffles.WTF was wrong with me?
