*[[Reductionism]]: We can solve the future by policy/taxonomy/data/tech:
*[[Pragmatism]]: We cannot predict emerging risks — we need flexibility and expertise to make risk decisions out in the view we can manage every risk by policy.
*A mixed approach required: Make BAU as standardised, preengingeered cheap and no-nonsense as possible; leave the frontiers as clear and flexible as possible.
:*BAU: [[Toyota Production System]]
:*Frontier: [[Normal accident]]s
Approaches which get this wrong: anything which obliges humans to rekey, fill out forms, attest, certify as to BAU: this is should be automated
*[[Reg tech]] which tries to do the hard stuff and requires humans to do the clerical stuff: which forces humans to be form-filler-outers
*[[Policy]] as a problem: if you codify get machines to do it. If you need humans to do it, you need to keep the rules simple and clear.
