The origin of the phrase planned obsolescence goes back at least as far as 1932 with Bernard London's pamphlet Ending the Depression Through Planned Obsolescence. The essence of London's plan would have the government impose a legal obsolescence on personal-use items, to stimulate and perpetuate purchasing. However, the phrase was first popularized in 1954 by Brooks Stevens, an American industrial designer. But I found an earlier example...

Why are incandescent light bulbs so fragile? after all, there is a light bulb first illuminated in 1901 and has been burning for over 120 years, with only brief interruptions. Located at Fire Station 6 in Livermore, California. why don't we have more like this today?

Front loading washing machines often have the drum bearing – a critical and wear-prone mechanical component – permanently molded into the wash drum, or even have a sealed outer drum, making it impossible to renew the bearings without replacing the entire drum. The cost of this repair may exceed the residual value of the appliance, forcing it to be scrapped.

In 1960 Vance Packard published "The Waste Makers", promoted as an exposé of "the systematic attempt of business to make us wasteful, debt-ridden, permanently discontented individuals".

Daily Trivium: Grammar: "Planned Obsolescence "- a fiat currency's best friend..
#bitcoin fixes this btw...
Definition (from Wikipedia): planned obsolescence (also called built-in obsolescence or premature obsolescence) is the concept of policies planning or designing a product with an artificially limited useful life or a purposely frail design, so that it becomes obsolete after a certain predetermined period of time upon which it decrementally functions or suddenly ceases to function, or might be perceived as unfashionable.

I was once told that the replacement of Christian beliefs with the doctrine of science would make the world a more logical place, free of tribalism. Then, somewhere along the way, they erased the study of Trivium in public schooling, corrupted the sciences and replaced it with tribalism...

Book summary (Thanks to LEO AI)...not bad actually.
"Tragedy and Hope: A History of the World in Our Time" #carrollqiigley
Carroll Quigley’s magnum opus, Tragedy and Hope, is a comprehensive history of the world from approximately 1880 to 1963. The book is a multidisciplinary work, focusing on the economic, political, and social developments that shaped modern history.
Key Themes:
1. The Rise of the Anglo-American Banking Elite: Quigley exposes the secret global elite, comprising Anglo-American bankers and politicians, who manipulated events to maintain their power and influence. He reveals how they exploited imperialism, wars, and economic crises to further their interests.
2. The Transition from European Dominance to the Three Blocs: Quigley describes the period from 1895 to 1950 as a transition from European dominance to a world of three blocs: the United States, the Soviet Union, and Western Europe. He analyzes the complex relationships between these blocs and their impact on global politics and economies.
3. The Role of Secret Societies and Organizations: Quigley discusses the influence of secret societies, such as the Round Table Groups, on global events. He also examines the role of organizations like the Council on Foreign Relations and the Bilderberg Group in shaping international relations.
4. The Evolution of Civilizations: Quigley’s work is informed by his model of civilization development, which posits that civilizations undergo distinct stages of growth, decay, and transformation. He applies this framework to understand the rise and fall of empires and the evolution of modern society.

Rhetoric (Persuasion and Communication)
During the Rhetoric stage, we learn to construct and present arguments effectively. Cognitive biases can influence their communication through:
Emotional appeal: we can prioritize emotional resonance over logical reasoning, leading to persuasive but flawed arguments. LESSON: learn #fallacies
Sunk cost fallacy: The investment of time and effort into an argument may lead to continue defending it, even when faced with contradictory evidence. LESSON: learn #fallacies.
Groupthink: The desire for consensus may lead students to suppress dissenting opinions and ignore potential flaws in their arguments. LESSON: #question#everything. Don't trust, verify
all roads lead to #bitcoin.

2024-08-26 23:58:41

Logic (Analysis and Evaluation)
In the Logic stage, we learn to analyze and evaluate arguments. Cognitive biases can affect this process through:
Anchoring bias: we can rely too heavily on initial impressions or dominant information, neglecting alternative perspectives. LESSON: stay humble...keep learning.
Availability heuristic: The vividness or recentness of information can influence its perceived importance, leading to biased evaluations. LESSON: don't trust, verify
Hindsight bias: After an event occurs, we may overestimate the ability to predict it, ignoring the role of chance and uncertainty. LESSON: stay humble, stack sats #bitcoin

2024-08-26 23:50:13

- reply

Grammar (Knowledge Acquisition)
During the Grammar stage, we focus on absorbing and memorizing facts. Cognitive biases can creep in through:
Confirmation bias: we can selectively focus on information that confirms existing beliefs, neglecting contradictory evidence. LESSON: always try to keep an open mind.
Authority bias: The credibility of sources may be overemphasized, leading students to accept information without critical evaluation. LESSON: be open to multiple sources
Stereotyping: Initial impressions or categorizations may influence how we perceive and remember new information. Lesson: be open to new data along the parh.

Daily Trivium: a word of caution.
The Trivium, a classical educational framework, consists of three stages: Grammar, Logic, and Rhetoric. When also applied to the study of cognitive biases, we can recognize trap doors that can influence our thinking and decision-making processes. see replies. for more.
