Stay on the bus

The title comes from one of the TED talks about a photographer changing his style as a response to feedback over and over, and never accomplishing much.  The talk’s theory is called the Helsinki bus stop theory as it was told in the context of going back and picking up another bus from the (Helsinki) bus stop and not reaching the destination.

Often investors prefer startups to change “buses” fast so the testable surface area of ideas increases. But as in the TED talk enduring the feedback and building on could be the best way.

Deep Adaptation: A Map for Navigating Climate Tragedy

This scientific paper is super depressing as it outlines arguments which sum up to the fact that we are facing inevitable collapse, probable catastrophe and possible extinction due to global warming. I think there is no point getting depressed but we need to acknowledge the facts of global warming and start addressing the inevitable adaptations our society will have to go through. No point discussing any more. We need to start acting now.
