Adequacy : Moderate and appropriate nature. In the early days of the Roman Empire , Emperor Tiberius hosted a grand feast and invited an inventor. The inventor presented a glass as a gift, and the emperor inquired about its features. When the inventor claimed that the glass was unbreakable , the emperor dropped it on the floor. Only one side was dented, and the emperor touched that spot, restoring it to its original condition. Astonished, the emperor asked the inventor, “Have you ever taught anyone how to make this glass?” The inventor replied, “I did not tell anyone.” Then the emperor ordered his execution because if the recipe for the glass were known, the value of the emperor’s gold and silver treasures would plummet. No matter how excellent something is, it can be the worst depending on the situation and context. That’s why adequacy is essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Consilience . When information is gathered to form knowledge and then used to gain insight through inspiration, it becomes wisdom. The world we live in is now multidimensional and a complex system . You can’t correctly interpret and understand it using only the simple patterns of a limited worldview . After collecting and discarding fragments of information and scattered knowledge, we must reconnect them to discover new patterns. Consilience is the ability to see wisely in a world filled with significant volatility and uncertainty . It’s a world where mistakes are easy to make if we only focus on one side. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
