@natematias @jzong there is only one real answer 🥲🥲🥲
@jzong @natematias in all seriousness tho I had never heard of this article but reading it now I’m 🤯🤯🤯 — thank you so much for sharing
@natematias @jzong always been a feedback gal but the valve theory blew my mind!!! so many good implications from this paper!
@crystaljjlee @jzong RITE? It's one of the OG algorithm folk theory papers. Ever since Karrie Karahalios shared it with me maybe 7-8 years ago, it's continued to be a helpful tool for thinking.
@natematias @crystaljjlee @jzong I have brought this paper up in casual thermostat conversations multiple times!
@kendraserra @natematias @crystaljjlee @jzong this paper is amazing???
