Pace layering is one of those ideas with such distant reach, ever since I first read about it I see it everywhere Gives us a tangible and visual way to see why complex systems behave how they do, and often resist attempts to change them So I went deep in my latest post: https://www.resextensa.co/p/pace-layers

when we say "that's a good problem to have", what do we mean? good problems are salient, articulable, and signal positive demand https://www.resextensa.co/p/good-problems-are-load-bearing-problems

the best way to generate creativity is to avoid rigid, predictable, measured processes — new ideas require freedom to experiment https://www.resextensa.co/p/inefficiency-breeds-creativity
