Another result is that the state of the art in programming advances much, much faster than we expect it to. No person working in isolation could possibly generate the advances we’ve seen in programming practice in our lifetimes. The whole memesphere is running forward full speed, and it is merely taking us along for the ride.Code | Meme Hacking
A meme is the smallest atomic unit of information that is stored in the mind that can be socially transmitted and reproduced (Heylighen 1998, Moritz 1990). This includes, but is not limited to thoughts, behaviors, emotions, ideas, and beliefs. Since memes are replicators that may or may not successfully replicate, an evolutionary model may be applied. Memes that successfully replicate more will displaces memes that don’t. Memes can also mutate, which allows new memes to be created. A model must be used to understand and study meme mutation and replication. The included model is based most heavily on Heylighen’s model of meme selection (1998) and Blackmore’s work on memes (1999)Meme Generator

The usage of the notion “emergence” may generally be subdivided into two perspectives, that of “weak emergence” and “strong emergence”. Weak emergence describes new properties arising in systems as a result of the interactions at an elemental level. Emergence, in this case, is merely part of the language, or model that is needed to describe a system’s behaviour. But if, on the other hand, systems can have qualities not directly traceable to the system’s components, but rather to how those components interact, and one is willing to accept that a system supervenes on its components, then it is difficult to account for an emergent property’s cause. These new qualities are irreducible to the system’s constituent parts (Laughlin 2005). The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. This view of emergence is called strong emergence. Some fields in which strong emergence is more widely used include etiology, epistemology and ontology.Emergence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You can’t buy an idea. Instead, people buy things like books, talks, classes, and consulting services. By and large, those buyers don’t measure any actual benefit. When wondering whether they got their money’s worth, they go by feeling and appearance. For early adopters, that can be enough. As people who seek sincerely and vigorously to solve a problem or gain an advantage, they are strongly motivated to find ideas of true value and to make them work. But for the later adopters, their motivation for change isn’t strong. For many, it’s merely to go along with everybody else, or to appear as if they are. Because those later adopters are numerically greater, they’ll be the majority of the market. And unlike early adopters, who tend to be relatively self-sufficient, they will consume more services, making them an even bigger influence. They’ll also tend to be the least sophisticated consumers, the least able to tell the difference between the product they want and the product they need. Putting that together, it suggests that when people want an idea, the most money can be made by selling products that mainly serve to make later adopters look or feel like they’re getting somewhere. Any actual work or discomfort beyond that necessary to improve appearances would be a negative. Bad products and bad ideas could drive out the good ones, resulting in a pure fad. The common perception of the idea would come to be defined by the majority’s behavior and results, burying the original notion. That’s the second chasm: an idea that provides strong benefits to early adopters gets watered down to near-uselessness by mainstream consumers and too-accommodating vendors.Agile Focus » Blog Archive » Agile’s Second Chasm (and how we fell in)
Usabilitiy Engineering und Scrum, passt das zusammen? In diesem Vortrag möchten wir den Teilnehmer verschiedene Usability-Methoden vorstellen, die einfach in Scrum-Projekten eingesetzt werden können. Dabei wird neben den evidenten Vorteilen auch auf potentielle Gefahren eingegangen. Idealerweise entsteht damit am Ende Software, die die Benutzer mögen!andrena objects ag - Usability-Engineering mit Scrum
The creation of games is particularly well-suited to provide a model of research through design. In this book’s introduction, Brenda Laurel makes a distinction between the notion of designing “for needs” and designing “for delight.” {see Laurel , Introduction}While all forms of design partake of both of these categories in some measure, game design is particularly skewed toward the creation of delightful experience, rather then the fulfillment of utilitarian needs. Although it is true that we can create and play games for a particular function (for exercise, to meet people, to learn about a topic), by and large, games are played for the intrinsic pleasures they provide.Play as Research: The Iterative Design Process
