Reflection

The Poster was submitted. Although I did not get to stand in a room, I reflect that the poster narrative is based on the Job Seeker persona. Although intentional, I feel unease as the original idea identifies other personas, and applied C.A.T.D.O.G as an adaption of C.A.T.W.O.E 1

This led to the two related realisations. The first is the capital of reproducibility, and the second is around scaling. That work subsequently leads back to what is sufficient and what is necessary.

The focus on reproducibility is reiteration; in action terms - go over past notes and see how well they support the revised project aims. The new goals are sufficient modifications that were necessary given the risks determined a posteriori that might yield a low chance of success. Care was taken not to dwell on those as these risks reflect gravitational problems 2.
