I learned about Neil Postman's concept of the information-action ratio[1] about 15 years ago and it totally changed my life. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/

  Interesting. I learned a similar concept from the late Hans Rosling in his book Factfulness. He described that we tend to not derive actionable insights from most news we consume (my wording). I felt the concept to be too similar to be a coincidence. He probably knew Postman's ideas.
