What is our goal? Is it more like Catholicism, where the aim is to replicate preordained design beliefs and practices? Or is it more like Buddhism, where an underlying mindset guides why people do certain things—but the specifics of what they do can vary wildly from person to person and place to place?

Michael Dearing, citado en un post de Bob Sutton en el blog de la D.School de Stanford (The Stanford D.School, scaling, and navigating the buddhism-catholicism continuum).

Sutton, con motivo de la publicación de su libro Scaling up Excellence, reflexiona sobre la necesidad de hacernos más budistas en nuestras estrategias de aprendizaje.

We do have options. Modify our user agreements to reinforce users’ property rights and expectations of privacy in their data to address the so-called “third-party doctrine.” Make architecture and encryption decisions that defend against upstream surveillance at the backbone. Appeal objectionable collection orders under Section 215 of the Patriot Act to the full Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC), the FISC Court of Review, and the Supreme Court, if necessary. Appeal National Security Letters (NSLs) in federal court if you believe warrantless requests for information are toxic to your values and your work.
