Finding meaningful thresholds for patterns

With the explosion of agents and the new levels of problem-solving and investigation they bring to analysis, we have to decide on the best ways to find meaningful thresholds for patterns. That is a line of questioning that I’m very interested in understanding today. It may not be a line of questioning that yields enough content for an entire post. Both the NBA and NHL finals are now complete for their respective seasons. I could delve into the world of hockey rumors, which is always pretty full of nonsense this time of year. That is not the direction that I will take today during this writing session.

We headed out for dinner at our local burger bar, and thankfully no AI was involved throughout the entire meal. That was probably the best part of the whole experience. It was free of distractions and just an opportunity to enjoy a meal and move along. I tried my best to be in the moment and just enjoy that opportunity. It worked out well enough. Now I’m back home writing and enjoying some Stargate SG-1. This is the 16th missive posted within the new weblog on Substack format. Right now the writing streak is on track, but I’ll admit my productivity is nowhere near the 3,000-word-per-day mark. It’s possible that sticking to the daily writing routine will help push things toward a more prolific future.

Part of the practice of writing is the habit of writing. Words hopefully beget more words. That is the pattern of things within the world of the written word. Episode 16 of Stargate SG-1 season one is pretty decent. I had mostly forgotten about the plot of it. I’m still using the Pages application on my MacBook Air and it has worked out well enough.
