#SystemsDynamics
#systemsdynamics proposed that every possible issue can best be understood by envisioning it as an interconnected whole consisting of

- stocks
- flows
- feedbacks
and delays (which i have not touched on yet, bc it is a mess).

the type of system described above is a certain archetype that […]

so this #population issue - let's just use it as an example for #systemsdynamics

you have these stocks, the number of individuals of a species alive and flows, individuals being born & dying.

but bc the number of individuals exiting positively influencing […]

another attempt to explain to myself why the worldview of so many of the #systemsdynamics people started to collide with reality since COVID or so, and many lost their marbles in sad and creative ways:

THIS is just not what most of us expected. these people are seeing everything through an […]

on #x and #bluesky i wrote very lengthy threads about #systemsdynamics, i am not gonna do that anymore.

if you to get a clue on the lowest, most basic level of this stuff, no matter if you are just a recreational systems thinker or an whole ass applied […]

flows are processes that increase or decrease these stocks. they describe how fast a quantity moves into or out of a stock over time. in a hydraulic system, flows are pipes, faucets, drains, leaks that determine how fluid enters or leaves a container.

trying to come up with a "#systemsdynamics of #trump" literally breaks my brain. systems dynamics assumes some degree of coherence, stable goals, consistent response. trump breaks all of that, constantly. he is basically a stress test.

the #systemsdynamics says we are fucked.

but i am willing to discuss this with a #complexity scientists.

#climate folks really have to learn #systemsdynamics. if you want to counter to #doomers you have to because that is what they are arguing. and they make many mistakes in doing so. but on this one thing they are right for a change: it all comes back to #decoupling from #fossilfuel unless you […]

please don't get me wrong. i am not denying the findings of #climatscience or the #limitstogrowth reports. yes, things look really dire. but the lack of true understanding of #systemsdynamics, which is not hard to obtain bc at the end of the day it is just basic observation of nature, will lead […]

so basically:

- #overshoot & #collapse as a #systemsdynamics concept are final & different from oscillation. it is not a thing you want to look forward to

- although the #systemsdynamics are the same, collapse can happen slow and gradually. it depends on which variable you look at. when you […]

but that is not always the case, although it is probably the concept most people have of #collapse. an abrupt and sudden breakdown of complexity.

it can also happen in a symmetric, gradual way, or even slower than the growth.

the underlying #systemsdynamics which cause the collapse are the same.

didn't want to share ugo anymore because he became sort of an antivaxx hippie*, but he is the only one talking about his as far as i can see.

and interestingly, right now, it has absolutely nothing to do with energy.

*just so you have been warned.
