Hello! I really like my feed: I learn lots of new things about #infosec, #crypto, #coops and #opensource.
However I'm missing some things--can you help me find them?
I want to talk more about people, working with them, their limitations and potential. I want to talk about #governance, #facilitation, #voting, #cognitivebiases and other concrete things that can be tried (and falsified) in #groups.
Let me know if you're interested, or boost if you think you have followers who are interested.
😀
@douginamug If you speak French and you want to talk about #CognitiveBias and #CriticalThinking there's @HygieneMentale
I don't know any expert on voting systems, except #cgpgrey. But I don't think he's on Mastodon.
@douginamug
Concerning #voting, you may be interested by the #MajorityJudgment which is judged by its authors to be “superior to any known method of voting and to any known method of judging competitions, in theory and in practice”.

@douginamug @nemoudeis @HygieneMentale @julm
you mean this method:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majority_judgment
?
it's a method that might make sense to choose for one scenario but not for the other. depending on the decision that is to be made different facilitation can improve the process.
Also:
many decisions are already made befor the actual voting.
'framing' 'spin' 'narratives' ...etc.
Many decision making concepts ignore this part

Yes, however be aware that #MajorityJudgment's authors recommend to not learn it from #Wikipedia due to its errors (and I would add: lack of mentioning the importance of applied criterions).
Indeed it's a tool addressing only a few concerns within the decision process. Which can still be undermined by other factors like #gerrymandering, #disinformation, <you name it>...
Still, it's the best collective ranking tool I know :)

I prefer for example score voting that contains out of 2 voting process.
First a negative one checking the resistance towards an idea.(cause ppl can do anything, even the most unpopular idea, and don't bother anyone as long their isn't a ressistance)
Then another round that votes on what you actually want.
@paulfree14
Concerning not bothering anyone unless their isn't a resistance, #MajorityJudgment can be used continuously and dynamically:
- it usually sets a default grade of "To reject", thus unless for a given choice more than 50% of voters vote, and vote some other grade, its majority-grade (middlemost) remains "To reject".
- it ranks, but does not _ask_ voters to rank or compare choices at all, hence it is independent of irrelevant alternatives.
