Gem of the Day

Gem of the Day – Teachers are not perfect. Students are not perfect. Risk is never mitigated to 100%.

A grade of an A, 100% at Harvard is not the same as a grade of an A, 100% at MIT. And neither might mitigate the same risk of a class at a community college. Ivy league, high standing and high standards has the potential to lead to Hubris. Mitigating the Risk far from a guarantee.

Easy to non ideally think of an A, a 100% as perfect, ideally sound data and training that will amplify only perfection.

Trying to be support for anyone brings with it a risk. Risk can be reduced, risk set to mitigated ideally, support set to delivered ideally seems unwise. If I give someone a bottle of water, it can help hydrate them. If the bottle was colder might they have enjoyed the water more? Yes. If I used my time to give two bottles of water versus spending time on chilling the bottle of water, would that be better? Possibly. Might have only been one person to give a bottle of water to.

Service and Support delivered gets set to ideal in non ideal ways. They have water equals enough? Not always. People might comprehend the value of Encouragement. People might comprehend the value of water added. People might decide to deliver water knowing people need it, might have delivered Encouragement if they realized others need it. Delivering Encouragement is not always easy, not always easy to get right, there is a risk in delivery, there is a time cost in delivery thus more water might be delivered instead of more encouragement when more encouragement might equal much more water delivered.

Discouraged, under supported people trying to survive are not always ideal amplifiers of conversation. Less conversation is not always more Encouragement. Desire to deliver in a body subject to health conditions delivers less than ideally.

My desire is for everyone to have a 5 star experience in life. My current health more likely to deliver a 1 star experience for a few before I leave the planet. There is a blessing in not having children. Forced to give them a 1 star experience when desire is to give them a 5 star experience?

People do not ideally add value. To say no water bottle beats a water bottle that isn’t chilled without extra encouragement would be wrong. There is risk in delivering value that is less than ideal. Risk factors into reward, no support can equal negated reward.

People are unlikely to pave their way to heaven based upon their good deeds or their lack thereof. People turn on electricity that helps many, yet leads to 1000 electrocutions 20% of which are children every year. Justice based upon how clean and spotless a person is delivers less than ideally. Value added will not always lead to zero problems incurred. If 100% is required for heaven, then likely all fall short, thus a savior is needed. Trying to do better adds value, we upsell it to ideal value, when there is still progress that needs to be made. Too harsh on imperfections, less than ideal delivery has potential for being costly. If one has to walk a tightrope to deliver support, is likely to be hit with liabilities and great losses for minor mistakes they are less likely to want to invest. Too expensive to support matters.

If one has to work for a month, and then has all their progress reduced, gets their paycheck cut because of one typo, how would that change things? Required to write a book with zero typos, zero typos or lose all progress? Levels and Tolerances can be made too tight.

Mistakes are costly can lead to wholesale divests from medicine. Potential for a botched surgery could lead to divest from medicine and medical wholesale. Could lead to zero desire to learn how Over The Counter medications actually work. Mistakes costly can be valuable to a point. To say it amps ideally would be unwise.

Small failures can compound into Big Losses for society. Encouraged right, Encouraged after failures matters. Society of keep them low is likely to reap what they sow. People that are taught to be unforgiving and unmerciful are unlikely to be ideal judgers of self when self makes a mistake. Hard to fully comprehend, guilt can be used by evil. But I was taught better, I should have known better, I should have known they would throw a curveball in that way, I should always be able to hit 100 MPH fastballs. People don’t hit all homeruns, a fact of life.

Updated on August 2nd, 2023 – The number I quoted about electrocutions includes electrocutions that are caused by lightning. Technical details matter, can be set too rigid (one might throw away this document because it does not call out this fact). My point is there are child electrocutions each year based on a system society (including myself invest in) and Electrical Safety is not always versed and amplified. Oppression is also factoring into delivery of this message, less oppression generally leads to more refinement on facts https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK448087/

Thus if you remove the 50 to 300 lightning deaths (which is still an important reason to amplify electrical safety), then the child electrocutions is 20% of the range between 700 and 950. Complicating based on minor details is possible and can lead to less adequate delivery. Truth Matters and Message Delivery Matters and the mix is less than all rounding out. Less than all rounding out gets claimed as all truth in on the common which is not all good.

Simplified results are useful, useful for making points, does not equal the simplified version is always free from bias or use as persuasion, potentially manipulation.

Clarification of details factors into what messages are turned up and what messages are turned down. Argument around clarification of details is not always all actual support amped. Negated clarification of details is not always all actual support amped.

Not this reports fault. The numbers did make me think of the following. Worthy of noting grouping of results might factor into ability to obfuscate ability to reduce perceived as clear truth. Forced to factor in less relevant data could lead to people wholesale discounting the important data. Obfuscation via reduced concentration might be possible in other domains and documents.

Relevance limiting is sometimes turned up for the point of impact. Sometimes used to convolute the value in a good message. But they are limiting relevance, not talking about this particular fact, equals wholesale divest is wise?

Perfection Unlikely

Perfection unlikely has potential to reduce value added. Unlikely to be a 5 star experience, break back trying to give a 4 star experience, or a 2 star experience will be adequate?

Lets not talk about it and see how it amps. A possible and probable system in life. People with less than ideal ability to judge, with less than ideal resolution have high potential for divesting from conversation about topics that are gray, iffy.

I was cutting the rings on 6 packs for soda bottles to hurt less Dolphins when I thought about it. Cutting the rings might save one Dolphin, or a few. The amounts of rings cut is unlikely to be perfect, and just because I cut some of the rings does not equal I am stopping others from dropping plastic into the ocean or hunting dolphins. My value added is less than ideal, has potential to equal I cut some rings, but holding self to standard of have to cut all rings is not perfection, thus divesting from belief I have to get it perfect has potential for valuable.

Less stress can be greater throughput. Lower stress might be less closer to ideal throughput at times. Someone that does something at 80% might deliver 5 times where as someone who does something at 100% might only deliver once, or give up trying to deliver once. Perfection too hard has potential to limit actual throughput, perfect has potential for less value added, reduced perfection has potential for less value added.
