I got the same reaction from that “how intelligence agencies think” YouTube video. Come now, “situational awareness”? Who needs a conspiracy to pay attention to their environment? And other mental tricks that people who must be told what to do may not come up with for themselves.

Design however is a highly praiseworthy contemplation. There are those who do it well, and those who best learn to rip off what works as faithfully as means allow.

To achieve innovation through design. it needs an organisational mindset and this shift comes with understanding that design culture is applied in strategic, tectical, and operational levels. Check my article What is this Thing Called Design Management? (https://www.designorate.com/what-is-this-thing-called-design...). This application ensures building design driven organisation.

I think you’re doing situational awareness a disservice, and I’m guessing you’ve never worked in a field where it is a trained discipline.

It is not just paying attention to your surroundings, it is actively scanning and evaluating to anticipate changes to your situation. Big difference between standing on a hill taking in the view versus keeping your head on a swivel, identify avenues of approach and egress, all while looking, listening, and smelling for anything out of place.

It is more applicable to the physical world than any software domain.

I worked as a designer (digital products) for 15 years before moving to the academia. I used the same mindset to design medical technology devices. While the fields seems to be differnet, the design activities are the same regadlress the outcome artefact. Of course, the expetise inputs varies.

Okay soldier, can you tell you are not alone in your own mind, and that American Thought Control is running an extortion racket on the United States Military?

Can you tell Bannon looted the intelligence community and exposed the envelope of every clandestine military secret by getting Trump to gather all of those commanders into one room?

You’re screwed and you don’t even know it.

Are you okay? Take it easy on the ketamine friend
