Comment on Methodological Awareness About Deming’s 14 Points of Continuous Improvement by Facilitation Expert https://mgrush.com/blog/continuous-improvement/#comment-135257 Tue, 26 Mar 2024 21:07:13 +0000 http://terrencemetz.com/?p=2427#comment-135257 In reply to penetration testing.

Agreed. You might want to look at RenDanHeYi, a term popularized by Haier, a leading Chinese multinational consumer electronics and home appliances company, translates roughly to “people, short link, value.” It emphasizes direct interactions between employees and users (customers), aiming to dissolve traditional hierarchical structures and promote an entrepreneurial culture within the organization. The model focuses on creating micro-enterprises within the larger corporate structure, each operating independently and responsively to market demands.

Comment on Voting Sucks Because it Leads to Bigger Numbers but Lower Quality Decisions by clay shentrup https://mgrush.com/blog/voting-sucks/#comment-135161 Fri, 01 Sep 2023 21:59:57 +0000 http://terrencemetz.com/?p=2812#comment-135161 > Results: The approach does little to distinguish between acceptable options and outstanding options. Results have been known to be highly erratic.

i would strongly disagree with this assessment. i’ve studied voting theory for almost 20 years, was mentioned in the 2008 book “gaming the vote” by william poundstone, and co-founded the center for election science. full disclosure: ces promotes approval voting.

the intensity of support between different options actually impacts the strategic “approval threshold”, as explained here by by me, but citing the research of a princeton math phd named warren smith, who is arguably history’s greatest expert on voting methods. (smith owns the site and served as an editor on this.)

https://www.rangevoting.org/RVstrat6

few voters are this mathematically precise, but this is indeed the strategy the intuitively use to a close approximation. e.gh. i really prefer elizabeth warren, but biden’s not too bad and i’m really worried about trump winning, so i’m going to lower my threshold and approve them both.”

the aggregate result of these kinds of strategies over a variety of voting methods has been studied via computer simulation by both warren smith and contemporaries like jameson quinn, a harvard stats phd who also served with myself and smith on the board of ces. some results summarized here:

https://www.rangevoting.org/RVstrat6
https://electionscience.github.io/vse-sim/

suffice to say, that approval voting performs extremely well, and tends to elect the condorcet winner whenever one exists.
