Feedback Loops

Enable fast and constant feedback cycles throughout all stages of development cycle. OODA loop

fail fast
swarm and solve problems to build new knowledge
Push quality closer to source.
- Don’t wait for QA to address security.
Optimize for people down the chain
- Dev team should work to make program more deployable
- Work to make others workflows easier while not sacrificing your own.
Some outcomes:
- understanding and responding to all customers, internal and external
- shortening / amplifying all feedback loops
- embedding knowledge where we need it
Optimizing MTTR (Mean Time to Repair) (same as MTRS Resiliance)

Good Explanation

Science and the scientific method is the most efficient way humanity has developed to systematically generate Discoverable Knowledge. The method centers around Feedback Loops of generating a falsifiable hypothesis and then putting those Theories Under Test. That falsifiable hypothesis is described as a Good Explanation by David Deutsch in his book “The Beginning of Infinity.”

Potential improvements would come not from prescribing any particular procedure or workflow; that would de-prioritize partition tolerance. Instead, giving more explicit effort towards avoiding unnecessary divergence would allow for more readily Discoverable Knowledge. This opens the door for propagating information across communication channels and making it easier to suggest strategies to optimize Feedback Loops.
Build Quality In

Having Continuous Learning implies that once things are learned, they don’t need to be re-evaluated. This is why it’s so important to have Self-Validating Good Explanations. Creating and evolving Feedback Loops to detect problems as early as possible is essential.
