“While resilient systems resist shocks and remain unchanged, antifragile systems improve and grow stronger when exposed to volatility, randomness, disorder, mistakes, attacks and failures.“
And the same happens to us as individuals?
I long puzzled over a quote from Bruce Lee:
Do not pray for an easy life; pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.
Difficult lives are filled with meaning making opportunities and demand presence?
t was William Gibson, the science fiction author, not Ray Kurzweil, who observed that "The future is here, it's just not evenly distributed" to highlight the idea that technological and societal advancements do not arrive or affect everyone simultaneously. Gibson first expressed this thought in an interview with Fresh Air on NPR in 1993 and reiterated it in subsequent discussions. He used it to reflect on how emerging technologies, such as the internet and advanced computing (themes central to his works like Neuromancer), profoundly shaped specific industries, regions, or demographics while leaving others untouched.
Thanks Lain Burgos Lovece. When it's so easy to pick up a wrong attribution, It's such a precious thing to be associated with those who bring them to our attention and add to their potency, rather thsn subtract from the statement.
