I lived in Texas for 3 years.
I watched the incredible Jarrell tornado scour the land from a meeting room at Tivoli.
What I learned is that weather in Texas is serious as a heart attack.
It is hard to understand what that means until you've experienced it.

I did a podcast discussing some of the Risk Management stuff I've been doing @ Google and STPA in particular.
I hope you find it useful.
STPA is a safety design method.
It is grounded in control theory.

The first time I attended a Materials Research Society conference I understood < 5% of the material.
The second time, I understand maybe 7%.
This time, I prepped by having Gemini explain the abstracts and I’m understanding maybe 12%.
Step by step I’m learning more about this critical area.
