#reactance

2025-06-01

"[...] agir sous la pression d'une norme/autorité/regard nous empêche de nous identifier pleinement à nos comportements." = pas responsable = ne compte pas.

cf : "je ne suis pas responsable, j'ai suivi les ordres ..."

"[...] Tandis que si nous estimons n'avoir de comptes à rendre qu'à nous-mêmes, nous assumons plus facilement nos actes."

-> processus de naturalisation.

-> "[...] plus facile d'extorquer un comportement [...] grace à des formules rassurantes [...]." -> " [...] pour manipuler quelqu'un, il ne faut pas lui faire croire qu'il est libre, mais lui rappeler qu'il l'est".

cf : technique de 'négociation' de Donald.

A study shows that people react more strongly to new restrictions, such as smoking bans, before they're introduced than afterward, when they better recognize the #societalbenefits: go.tum.de/848001

8/ Conclusion:
“Am I not allowed to say that anymore?” is not a harmless phrase.
It’s a sign of a psychological reflex
that right-wing movements intentionally trigger
to fuel resistance against empathy and solidarity.

📌 If we understand reactance, we can have better conversations –
and disarm right-wing populism.

In case anyone has trouble keeping your reactances straight: #reactance is essentially a measure of how far your #antenna is to resonance, if it's positive, it's called *Inductive* and your antenna is too *long*.

If it's negative, it's called capacitive and you fucked up (I.e. your antenna is too short)

Or, to put it in grug-speak[^0] "big number mean too big, small number mean too small"

[^0]: I'm not being patronizing, this is for my benefit because I am a [grug](grugbrain.dev/)

#Influence #Reactance We trigger reactance, when we limit the freedom someone has. Especially true, when we want them to do something. To succeed in influencing, we need to give people meaningful real choices. Where have you had better luck by providing someone choice?

#Influence #Reactance - When we limit freedom, we often face resistance, especially in persuasion. The key to success is providing genuine choices.

Where have you had success by offering choice?

Jessica Wildfire, excellent as always:

»Even when the threat turns out to be very real, a majority of the public will continue to mock and ridicule the handful of us who make a reasonable effort to protect ourselves. They continue to get angry over the slightest suggestion they should pay attention to a threat.«

#Influence #Failures We trigger #Reactance when we leave the other person feeling (not thinking ;-), that our request is all about us and not their emotional need. If you want to avoid #Reactance take the time to listen to other people's needs. Really listen with the intent to understand. (Hint this is often an emotional response, better explaining your idea won't help)

When have you triggered reactance, by putting your own needs first? What did you do to recover?

#Influence #Failures and What to do about them
You're a manager who just asked your leadership to solve an impediment. Starting a new team and you tell them they need to use Scrum. In both cases you're surprised by the defensive reaction you just triggered. What happened? #Reactance

@abraxas3d
Brought wife to Target to pick up a prescription, etc., & I gave her a #HamRadio request for her shopping list. She picked me up 2 hula hoops!

I’m excited by the prospect of this much wider separation eating up more element length with less #Reactance of either sort. I’ve a gut feeling this will improve its overall behavior.

Also interested in testing sawtooth pattern vs square pattern. Really got to figure out how to get #MMANA going again.

#Reaktanz ist die Motivation, gegen psychologischen Druck oder vermeintliche Freiheitseinschränkungen zu handeln: "F*ck you, Greta"-Aufkleber auf dem Turbodiesel und Maskenverweigerer. Das Hamstern von Klopapier.

Erklärt so viel, was gerade schief läuft.

Anyone here who can help me with readings on #preference #falsification and the tendency to hatch #conspiracytheories ? What role does the in-group #bias have in the phenomenon? What does #reactance look like when confronted with bias busting evidence?

Un truc qui m'agace sur Twitter, c'est quand je réponds à une personne avec un message posé, dans une démarche de comprendre sincèrement ce que pense la personne et sans aucune violence, de la faire peut-être réfléchir etc... et que d'autres personnes viennent, répondent au même message avec des arguments fallacieux, des insultes ou de la mauvaise foi.

ça rend le dialogue beaucoup plus difficile pour moi et ça ruine généralement l'échange 😞

Svp, ne faites pas ça.

Cascade Failures, Computer Problems, and Ohms Law: Understanding the Northeast Blackout of 2003

We've all experienced power outages of some kind, be it a breaker tripping at an inconvenient time to a storm causing a lack of separation between a tree and a power line. The impact is generally localized and rarely is there a loss of life, though it can happen. But in the video below the break, [Brady] of Practical Engineering breaks down the Northeast Blackout of 2003, the largest power failure ever experienced in North America. Power was out for days in some cases, and almost 100 deaths were attributed to the loss of electricity.

[Brady] goes into a good amount of detail regarding the monitoring systems, software simulation, and contingency planning that goes into operating a large scale power grid. The video explains how inductive loads cause reactance and how the effect exacerbated an already complex problem. Don't know what inductive loads and reactance are? That's okay, the video explains it quite well, and it gives an excellent basis for understanding AC electronics and even RF electronic theories surrounding inductance, capacitance, and reactance.

So, what caused the actual outage? The complex cascade failure is explained step by step, and the video is certainly worth the watch, even if you're already familiar with the event.

It would be irresponsible to bring up the 2003 outage without talking about the Texas ERCOT outages just one year ago- an article whose comments section nearly caused a blackout at the Hackaday Data Center!
