Topics to cover and ideas
- key to create scalable workflows. it is all about effectiveness.
- Positive reinforcement, adjust to navigation
- explain using feedback loops from control systems and engineering
- TDD is a gigantic feedback loop
- Bret Victor's inventing on principle (https://vimeo.com/36579366) is all about feedback loops
- not about just 'giving feedback' . the key for feedback loops is that the input will affect the output which will affect the input (good example are how a driver uses the driving wheel in a car)
- used in music (to create special electric guitar sounds)
- one interesting challenge is how to measure it
- I think I have a really good instinct for how feedback loops can exist in business and development
- exponential growth can happen easily in an feedback loop
