Golf lesson: Study shows political polarization hurts performance at work
Few workers face more scrutiny than professional athletes. Every movement is measured, every outcome quantified, and every performance evaluated against objective standards. So when UC Berkeley Haas researcher Tim Sels wondered how America's deepening political polarization was affecting workers' performance, he turned to one of the most comprehensive data sets on individual human performance: the PGA Tour.

Greg Olson Quantifies the Raiders' Loss of Brock Bowers https://www.si.com/nfl/raiders/onsi/las-vegas-greg-olson-quantifies-loss-of-brock-bowers

What @… said, I basically want to yell at everyone and everything within 1000m of somebody saying “KPI” in basically every business everywhere.
quantification ≠ objectivity
quantification ≠ empiricism
quantification ≠ methodological soundness
quantification = mapping non-numerical things to numbers, and that’s it. The rest is up to you. https://infosec.exchange/@saraislet/115544576545095979

What if homeowners could control their own electricity flow and slash energy costs?
Schneider Electric and the National Lab of the Rockies have spent a decade exploring exactly that. They're developing smart panels and using AI to reimagine America's energy future—modeling scenarios for 2050 and quantifying how tech can deliver resilience and affordability.

Daniels was looking at just 10 easily quantifiable body measurements. How many important dimensions of variations are there in a human mind? How hard are they to measure? How likely is it that even one single “average” mind exists on Earth?? The odds are vanishingly small.
[Napkin sketch: assume there are a paltry 20 dimensions of brain variation. (Surely that’s low.) Assume there’s a 1 in 5 change of being completely “normal” in each. (Surely that’s high.) Even that absurd hypothetical gives a 1 in 11,490 chance that a •single• completely average mind exists in a population of 8.3 billion.]
