N+1 Benchmarks and Perspectives

In Doc DuBois who I imagine in my head the whole time to be Niel deGrasse Tyson in Seveneves. He points out why certain options were only allowed to them because they have no N+1, they had nothing else to compare to experiment with. All they really had is their best guess and models.

Having an N+1 (or something to benchmark against) is always good – be it in coping mechanisms, habits, prices, systems, etc…  Even in Perspectives I can’t help but compare. And lately with EQ studies Acknowledging a Point of View doesn’t mean foregoing or eliminating another. Its Not Zero-Sum – its like Overlapping Sets (Imagining colored sets circles overlapping) or Overlapping Bayesian Probabilities. Somewhere in the Overlapping perspectives and comparison is something that is Not-quite the “universal truth” but good enough for the purposes of Moving to the next phase or achieving some Interim goal. 

Take Away: the more I understand EQ, the more I can think in Perspectives and Experience. The actionable Item is being aware and always being able to “pull back” and examine if I’m examining FACTS or Perspectives. When I know I’m examining Perspectives I begin to another Troubleshooting checklist that reveals considerations I did not think off at first or I obviously miss out in the beginning. 

Right now I’m formatting my hard Drive after last nights “EPIC” banchmarking of copying files. Copying files is a an old Benchmarking technique, as well as Unzipping. I think somethings wrong with my Laptop. It was not until I set up this UBUNTU 20.04.1 on an Optilex 3020 i3-4K series with 8GB ram and Kingson 120GB SSD am I seeing these problems. 

N+1 is tackled a lot in Datacenter Construction because there is always a redundancy to get to a TIER

I remember that Old joke where There are two points of Views where a character says “their both right” and the audience is lead to believe they can’t be both Right… logically. But with EQ – you approach things in perspectives and experiences – so people can be BOTH right and contradict each other. The victim is Aggressor, and Aggressor is Victim with EQ. Again – to Acknowledge an Experience doesnt mean its a zero-sum fact
