Everything is strong and stable I say, as I shove handfuls of documents from my office safe into my expensive designer black leather duffel bag.

Things are better than ever I smile as I book an uber to a small private airport.

You'll see the foundations are rock solid I tweet just before the plane crosses the legal border, then I toss the phone out of the plane.

This is omnipresent. if there are known metric somebody (or everybody!) is going to optimize for the metrics to get an advantage / promotion, thereby distorting what the metrics were trying to on measure.

so I dunno I just go look. I also do this professionally a lot, watch, photograph, and extensively note. serious old school business does this a lot, new “disruptors” not so much.

it’s almost like no one wants to acknowledge that observation both qualitative and quantitative is the first thing to do. instead everybody wants data first and then to back fit a hypothesis to data.

there is also generally a focus educationally on form over substance. it doesn’t matter what the thesis is, grading is determined by its support structurally.

and there is economics it’s all wonderfully structured. built on its clear assumptions with its straight forward correlative relationships expressed in simple lines intersecting. no causative or complex systems thinking. just two lines intersecting.

I mean that’s not useless. but it’s certainly not everything. The complexity and sophistication of a model increases our tendency to accept the model’s conclusions as truth.

I think particularly with Krugman that’s what’s going on. a lot of folks are quick to go to “massaging numbers” as an accusation. that’s unnecessary. somebody like Krugman is doing what they were trained to do and honestly.

This is something that pisses me off when dealing with some people, and orthodox economists definitely fall into this group. The thing I specialize in professionally is largely figuring out how to make poo poo work better, and I do the bulk of that by looking at what currently exists, and figuring out why it's the way it is. What are the problems being solved? What are the problems that haven't yet been solved? What are the lessons that were learned along the way that led to how things are? Metrics aren't gonna tell you this poo poo (and if you say you want metrics in order to "tell a story", you're probably asking for a convenient lie). You need to go talk to people and get their perspectives if you want the actual information. Odds are, that's going to be qualitative much more often than it is quantitative.

Yeah, there are often numerous ways to do specific subsets of things better, but if you ignore the what and the how and the why of things, really the nuance of the system you're dealing with in general, you're just creating exciting new problems for somebody to solve later.

No, no, let me correct you there. It's regular people who go bankrupt. We're a bank. We just have liquidity issues.
