One man’s resiliency is another man’s waste, one man’s inefficiency is another man’s flexibility.

Pick your poison, just know what you’re picking.

Maybe I’m being too clever but to me (a pilot and engineer) there’s this sort of Societal Minsky Moment where we’ve had stability in certain sectors for so long we’ve become communally immune to imagining risk properly.
because we live in societies where nothing ever happens, there are now too many people thinking in bets (put sellers) and not enough people thinking like aviation or nuclear safety engineers
