The extrapolated concept is great for life in general. Quite literally use different vocabulary to reframe an existing challenge to force a shift in perspective and thereby arrive at a different problem.
A quite simple observation by the article on how perhaps to approach challenging life issues as well as say mathematical ones. As shifting perspectives when in the trenches of complex life challenges is really hard.
- CollinLysford 5y agoThe article I link at the beginning of this one, Representation and Uncertainty, is about exactly this - how to think about the extrapolated concept of representation for life in general. Self-promo I know but I think anyone who resonates with your comment would really enjoy it: https://desystemize.substack.com/p/representation-and-uncertainty?s=w https://desystemize.substack.com/p/representation-and-uncert...
- shisisms 5y agoThat wasn’t skimmable, lol. But a striking point no-less. Put another way, a lot of the economic advantages of “problem solving” in big tech in particular is so dangerously devoid (or “bankrupt” as you state) of suitable representation that the framing leads to the dangerous social precipice we now find ourselves in. It’s questions without representation, with lowly symbolism if any at all. Eg “connecting people” is a useless solution without the correct representation. I hope I didn’t totally miss your point :)
