"If at the moment you are haphazardly and unknowingly optimizing for only one mode of thinking, you are also unknowingly optimizing for confusion and misunderstanding and second-guessing.

Because the efficiency of communication isn‘t solely a measure of the time it takes to move information from one head to another; it‘s also the time and energy required to build and sustain collective understanding." — #MandyBrown #EverythingChanges
