It was a very heady experience, and while preparing to interview him, I was startled to discover how much work he's done in healthcare, aviation, spaceflight, but also innovation.
Many of you have seen the famous Westrum Organizational Typology model, so prominently featured in State of DevOps Research, Accelerate, DevOps Handbook, etc.
This model was created Dr. Ron Westrum, a widely-cited sociologist who studied the impact of culture on safety

I was startled to learn he has also studied in depth what enables innovation. He wrote a wonderful book "Sidewinder: Creative Missile Development at China Lake"

"What is the underlying science [and theory]?
"Today Rabinow, professional inventor w/230+ US patents, an advisor to NIST: 'all inventors come up w/many idea; you must know that most are trash."
This prevented expansions in budget, oversight, meddling
Dr. Bill McLean is the center of the narrative, Ph.D. from Caltech, who led the program, and eventually China Lake
That could be answering a question, dictating what the work should be, or doing the work.
"Lockheed Skunk Works shared many similar traits... Director "Kelly" Johnson promised P-80 Shooting star in
(Also resonates w/me. As @chawlady wrote: we stopped optimizing for cost, and optimized for speed)
Dr. Westrum says that the literature calls this the "technical maestro"
(other missile programs burdened with lots of premature requirements)
More to come later...
More from Trading
I spent over 100 hours studying the best patterns in Technical Analysis taught to me by @niki_poojary.
Turns out, patterns trading is simple—if you follow these 8 Patterns:
Let's start: ↓
While studying her Twitter profile and with constant talks with her, I found these to be the most important patterns she focuses on always.
Then I wrote a small summary of what each pattern means.
Also attached are some examples from her tweets.
1/ Cup and handle Pattern
Happens during an uptrend.
The cup portion has a U-shaped appearance.
The bears are getting weaker as they are unable to drive the prices below the last low.
Subhasish Pani uses this a lot in stocks to spot bullish trades.

Whenever the index is moving in a single direction, its important to go with the trend.
A few weeks ago when BNF broke out of the cup and handle pattern, all we had to do was sell PEs.
