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

if you want 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 #systemsengineer (maybe especially then), you should read meadows primer on how this stuff _actually_ works.

The image shows a book cover. At the top, the title reads "Thinking in Systems" in bold black text. Below that, in smaller text, it says "A Primer". Further down, the author is "Donella H. Meadows", and beneath that, "Edited by Diana Wright, Sustainability Institute" in even smaller text. On the left side of the cover, there is a colorful, coiled spring with segments transitioning from red through orange, yellow, green, to blue. The background of the cover is white.

why should you give a fuck about this niche ass, inaccessible sophistry?

because that is the way to go on about understanding phenomena in #complexsystems. it is by far not the only way to think about it, systems science is wast and diverse. but it is a good start to wrap your head around things like #overshoot and hysteresis, things happening in the complex world around us which are hard to grasp and often get misunderstood. it is #complexity literacy.
