Things Are Going Seriously Wrong

by Chris Gilbey at 10:40AM (EST) on July 7, 2008 | Permanent Link | Cosmos

When you see stories like this one, you have to wonder how close we all are to a serious societal meltdown.

The UK government is meeting with supermarket chains to encourage them to stockpile basic foodstuffs in anticipation of supply chain failures caused by a national truckers' strike.

The big issue here is not the strikers but the fact that the infrastructure is totally reliant on one strand of the supply chain. And what do they say?: "We are only seven days food supply away from revolution"....

Perceptric Forum

According to Wikipedia a perceptron is a type of artificial neural network.

Ergo a “Perceptric” is a person who creates or uses a neural network.

The Perceptric Blog is where Chris Gilbey posts thoughts, ideas, and links intended to stimulate thought and accelerate the transfer of ideas.

Chris is available for consulting work with the premise that it is not technologies that are disruptive so much as the people that use them.

The Perceptric mission is to help companies and people reach their goals and exceed their expectations. This will often mean offering counterintuitive conclusions.

Our view? The shortest distance between two points is not necessarily a straight line. It's the number of people needed to be present in a human network to influence and deliver positive decision making.
