Time is a tickin'


This is a great article in the NYTimes about making decisions. read the article and then think about how these ideas could be affect very complex systems and decisions. It would seem that the more involved the decisions are the more time spent on average making them and the lower the net reward would be for making the right choice. It seems to me just another reason to decentralize and allow eliminate the number of complicated decisions in favor of allowing people to organize their lives to fit their own circumstances. We should remember these kinds of trade offs when we promote, create or design any type of system, space or object.
