You know how I said I made LOOPY so I can create interactives more often than once every three months? Well, here's a new interactive, made with LOOPY, out well before three months!

ENVIRONMENT ⇆ ECONOMY : on feedback loops and win-win solutions

Hope you enjoy it! And I hope you learn not just about the environment & economy, but also the mental tools of finding feedback loops and non-zero-sum solutions. Also it's Earth Day next week, so I wanted to get this out a bit before Earth Day.

. . .

Patreon Housekeeping Shtuff:

A couple weeks ago I sent out a poll asking which of three "big" interactives I should make next. (this "mini" interactive doesn't count) Finally, the poll results are in!

drum roll please... (fervent tapping on desk)

  • The Evolution of Trust (iterated prisoner's dilemma): 50%
  • The Monkey Meta-Mind (cultural evolution theory): 47%
  • My Robot Therapist (cognitive behavioral therapy): 44%

The Evolution of Trust wins! It was really close, though. I'm flattered that you liked all those ideas almost as equally! (Note: it doesn't add up to 100%, coz I used approval voting, coz I'm no first-past-the-posting CHUMP.)

So, up next, for the rest of April 2017:

1) Quickly redesign ExplorableExplanations.com

2) Make a Patreon-exclusive prototype of The Evolution of Trust!

I'm looking forward to making those! Thank you again so much for all your kind words and support. :) Hope you enjoy my new mini-interactive for Earth Day (here's a link again) and talk with y'all again very soon~

How do readers comment on your new mini-interactive? One detail, cows burp methane, they don't fart it. :-) As I see the different Loopy's I'm struck by the fact that anyone can design their Loopy to generate whatever result they want to generate. Could make it easier to misuse systems thinking?

question: have you enhanced loopy for your own use? will those enhancements go public? it's so cool, it really deserves all your attention so you should put your vision and freedom aside and dedicate your life to a building an underappreciated, marginally successful software firm. Or, some other way. I would gladly pay a bounty for certain features, and I'm sure others would as well. I'll do anything, just don't give me the FOSS lecture.
