Thinking in Systems

  1. 1Stocks, flows, and feedbackSeparate stocks, flows, and feedback before deciding whether a rewrite can move anything.
  2. 2A few common structuresBalancing loops, reinforcing loops, and delays show up between publishing, measurement, and citation.
  3. 3Why a system holds togetherResilience, self-organization, and hierarchy decide whether the system can keep going.
  4. 4Why a system surprises youA wrong boundary, a model treated as the world, and nonlinear effects split "optimized" from real citation.
  5. 5TrapsA metric replaces the goal, several people edit one fact, or rules pile up without new information.
  6. 6Where leverage sitsWord frequency is weak leverage. Information, feedback, and goals make citation stable.
  7. 7Living with the systemKeep watching, put responsibility on the structure, and judge citations over a longer span.

Engineering: A Beginner's Guide

  1. 1What engineering is forEngineering makes a requirement work under constraints. Content engineering does the same.
  2. 2Which layer each kind of engineering maps toStructure, information, materials, and interface each map to a layer. Do not collapse them into one line of copy.
  3. 3From requirements to a design you can testWrite the acceptance tests before the prose. Failure has to be pointable.
  4. 4What content shapes, and what constrains itA page changes how others answer a question, and it is constrained by platforms, sources, and responsibility.
  5. 5How doing the work creates knowledgeAnnotation, rejection, and sampling create knowledge the handbook does not have. Write it back into the standard.
  6. 6Old pages, capacity, and riskPublished pages age. Capacity, the cost of upkeep, and a failure plan belong in the same account.
