(NOTAS Y ENLACES DEL CAPÍTULO: https://www.jaimerodriguezdesantiago.com/kaizen/187-toma-de-decisiones-viii-pensamiento-analitico-feynman-la-nasa-y-la-incertidumbre/) “In God We Trust. All Others Bring Data”«Confiamos en Dios. Todos los demás traed datos» Esta frase de William Edward Demings, un estadístico estadounidense que fue clave en el desarrollo y crecimiento de Japón tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial, preside la sala de evaluación de misiones de la NASA. O eso se cuenta siempre. Yo no lo he visto. Pero parece lógico: explorar los confines del universo, llevar al hombre a la Luna o tratar de encontrar vidas alienígenas son tareas que requieren de una precisión extrema y de un profundo conocimiento científico. Sin embargo, la realidad es tozuda. Y frente a nuestro afán por tomar las mejores decisiones basadas en datos, nos enfrentamos continuamente a la necesidad de decidir sin muchos de ellos, bajo presiones de todo tipo. Algo similar le sucedió, precisamente, a la propia NASA el 28 de enero de 1986.Aquel día despegaría el Transbordador Espacial Challenger, con sus siete tripulantes a bordo, y con, al menos, dos misiones. La primera, la oficial, era la de desplegar un satélite de comunicaciones y estudiar el Cometa Halley mientras estaban en órbita. La segunda, no tan explícita, era la de volver a despertar el interés del público por la conquista del espacio. Habían pasado casi 17 años desde la llegada a la Luna y, sin nuevos grandes hitos que excitaran su imaginación, los estadounidenses ponían su atención —y con ella sus votos y, por tanto, su dinero— en otros temas. Por eso, aquel lanzamiento fue precedido de una campaña de comunicación sin precedentes.Incluso, como cuenta Nuria Pérez en su maravilloso podcast Gabinete de Curiosidades, se plantearon que en aquella misión viajara Big Bird, el primo americano de la Gallina Caponata. Sí, la de Barrio Sésamo. Me habría encantado estar en la reunión en la que discutieron eso. Al final, se dieron cuenta de que, por lo que sea, meter a alguien con un disfraz de dos metros y medio en lo que esencialmente era una lata de sardinas espacial no era factible. La elegida finalmente fue Christa McAuliffe, una maestra de escuela seleccionada entre más de 11.000 candidaturas, que se ganó rápidamente el cariño del pueblo estadounidense con su carisma y su pasión por el espacio.«T menos 10, 9, 8, 7, 6 —motor principal arrancado—, 4, 3, 2, 1… ¡y despegue! ¡Despegue de la XXV misión del transbordador espacial, que ha abandonado la torre!» Así sonó el despegue del Challenger, que fue emitido en directo para todo el país. La cámara siguió a la nave en su majestuoso ascenso. Apenas un minuto después, justo cuando el corresponsal de la CNN comenzaba a recapitular la cantidad de retrasos sufridos por la misión, enmudeció. Frente a sus ojos y a los de millones de espectadores, la nave se desintegró en miles de pedazos en mitad de una enorme humareda. Y con ella sus siete tripulantes. La tragedia del Challenger sacudió Estados Unidos. Para empezar fue un punto de inflexión en el interés por el espacio y, en particular, en los riesgos que estaban dispuestos a asumir para alcanzarlo. A raíz del accidente, se creó una comisión de investigación encabezada por un ex-Secretario de Estado, William Rogers, a quien al parecer Ronald Reagan, por entonces presidente de Estados Unidos, sugirió que las conclusiones debían proteger a la NASA. Formaron parte de aquella comisión todo tipo de figuras de la aeronáutica, la ingeniería, el ejército y la ciencia. Estaba hasta el primer ser humano en pisar la Luna, Neil Amstrong. Eran casi todos hombres, eso sí. Entre todos ellos estaba un viejo conocido de este podcast: nuestro amigo Richard Feynman, que a sus 67 años era seguramente el científico vivo más conocido y más respetado del mundo. Y también alguien con ideas propias. Dicen las malas lenguas que tal vez desde el poder político pensaron que podrían controlarlo, que ya no tendría la energía de su juventud y que, en cualquier caso, la burocracia y los votos de otros mucho más susceptibles a las presiones acabarían acallándolo. De hecho, él se mantuvo bastante discreto durante todo el proceso. Se tomó su tiempo para entender el problema, comprender el funcionamiento de la nave y también el de la propia comisión. Y empezó a tener la sensación de que más que descubrir la verdad, había un interés en encubrirla. Así que se buscó un aliado: el general Donald Kutyna. Feynman solía contar cómo un día Kutyna se acercó a él con una idea interesante sobre cómo el frío podía haber afectado a las juntas de goma que sellaban los compartimentos del combustible. Dijo que se le había ocurrido reparando su coche. Aunque la realidad era otra: Sally Ride, la única mujer en la comisión, había entregado a Kutyna un documento de la NASA que ella no podía desvelar sin implicar a quienes se lo habían conseguido. Y al general sólo se le ocurrió aquella historieta de su coche para poner a Feynman sobre la pista. Con eso, ya tenían una teoría de lo que había pasado. Sólo les faltaba convencer al resto. Y de eso se encargó Feynman. Lo hizo en una audiencia pública retransmitida por televisión. En un momento dado, en mitad de la intervención de un directivo de la agencia espacial, Feynman pidió la palabra. Mientras cuestionaba a aquel testigo, tomó una pieza de plástico como el que se usaba en las juntas y lentamente lo sumergió en agua helada. Unas preguntas después, sacó la pieza del vaso y explicó que el frío la había vuelto rígida, había perdido su flexibilidad. Millones de personas entendieron inmediatamente el problema. Mientras que inicialmente la NASA había estimado las probabilidades de un accidente como el que sucedió como de una entre 100.000, la presión de Feynman, Kutyna y Sally Ride demostró que el riesgo de aquel lanzamiento era mucho mayor: de 1 entre 200. En el informe final de la comisión, Feynman —a quien había molestado profundamente el uso propagandístico de la misión y de aquella maestra tristemente fallecida— obligó a que se incluyera la siguiente frase, amenazando con no firmar el informe si no se hacía. «Para que una tecnología sea exitosa, la realidad debe prevalecer sobre las relaciones públicas, porque la naturaleza no puede ser engañada». Puro Feynman. ¿Te gusta kaizen?

In 2021 is de verhouding tussen China en de Verenigde Staten stroef. Maar tot vijftig jaar geleden was er helemáál geen relatie tussen de communistische Volksrepubliek en het kapitalistische Amerika. Het China van voorzitter Mao was internationaal geïsoleerd en de VS zat met de eindeloze oorlog in Vietnam. Beide kanten vonden dat er wat moest gebeuren.In het diepste geheim reisde president Richard Nixons nationale veiligheidsadviseur Henry Kissinger naar premier Zhou Enlai in Beijing. Het bezoek lag zo gevoelig, dat het hele Amerikaanse ministerie van Buitenlandse Zaken erbuiten werd gelaten. Niemand mocht het weten.Doordat de Chinezen en Amerikanen openstelden naar elkaar, veranderden de geopolitieke verhoudingen volledig, vertelt PG Kroeger aan Jaap Jansen. Kissinger was nog tamelijk onbekend toen hij op pad ging. Waarom Nixon juist hém stuurde is een verhaal op zich. Hóe Kissinger uiteindelijk na veel misverstanden in een gastenvilla in een keizerlijke tuin terechtkwam, is een avonturenroman - een schelmenroman eigenlijk. Om ongezien in Beijing te komen, moest Kissinger – geholpen door de president van Pakistan – buikloop veinsde.PG vertelt over de bijzondere rol van Mao's favoriete tolk, Nancy Tang uit Brooklyn, notulist Lian Zhengbao, maarschalk Ye, veteraan van de Lange Mars in de jaren dertig en de weinig gelukkige minister William Rogers.In juli 1971 voerde Kissinger gesprekken met de premier die voor Mao het buitenlands beleid deed, Zhou Enlai. De twee fameus geworden diplomaten wonnen elkaars vertrouwen, maar dat ging niet vanzelf. Onverwachte gebeurtenissen als een WK tafeltennis in Tokyo en een vliegtuig dat neerstortte in Mongolië hadden ingrijpende gevolgen.Een ding staat vast. Deze geheime reis was het begin van het einde van de Koude Oorlog. En de voorbode van de multipolaire wereld waarin we nu leven.***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt door donaties van luisteraars via de site Vriend van de Show.

It's one of those rare episodes where 1) we let others in to the party and 2) JB has to share the mic with more than just Ant! We're super proud of JB (ex GWR Radio PLC) along with some brilliant co-authors in William Rogers (ex CEO of UKRD) and Dave Coull (ex Group PD at UKRD) with their new book launch the 'The No Normal Leader' In this action packed hour, the trio (along with Ant's steering) discuss the reality that covid, consolidation, politics create change. But change needs to be accepted as normal. Preparing for a 'new norm', or a holding pattern until 'a new normal' is complacency. No Normal Leadership - should be the default. "Is Covid just a rehearsal for no normal worlds" - have a listen and decide for yourself.

A guy in New Hampshire named William Rogers was ice skating alone on Sunday when he fell through the ice.  A woman who is studying to be a "pelvic floor physical therapist" likes to post advice on TikTok.  A guy was so bored during quarantine that he built an entire video store in his basement.  Is This Anything?

Listen NowThe homeless of course suffer substantial health problems.  The CDC estimates nearly half have one or more chronic health condition (e.g., heart disease, diabetes, cancer), two in five have a mental health diagnosis/es, one-fourth suffer substance abuse, one-third are alcohol addicted.  One 2005 study showed shocking mortality rates, the median age of death was 45.  Over half do not have health insurance - though homeless adults will become eligible in 2014 for Medicaid coverage in states that agree to expand their Medicaid program under the ACA (about half the states) to 133 percent of the federal poverty level ($15,200). During this 24-minute podcast, Dr. Rogers explains how/why he became involved in caring for the homeless.  He discusses the magnitude of the problem, explains the purpose and evolution of the Carpenter's Shelter, the services he provides its patients (as well as care he provides for other homeless Alexandria residents), his frustrations when attempting to find provider for patients needing more intensive care, e.g., surgeries, expectations for Virginia in expanding Medicaid coverage under the ACA in January 2014 and what that would mean for Carpenter's.    Dr. Rogers operates a free medical clinic at the Carpenter's Shelter for the homeless in Alexandria, Virginia.  Dr. Rogers is also the Director of the Physicians Regulatory Issues Team at the Centers forMedicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and is also a member of Georgetown University ospital medical staff working in the Emergency Department and teaching residents and medical students.  He too holds the rank of Colonel in the US Air Force and is the Operational Medical Director for the National Park Service, National Capital Area.  Before joining CMS, Dr. Rogers served as the Regional Director for an ED staffing company responsible for four EDs in Virginia employing 50 physicians.  Dr. Rogers is a member of the American College of Emergency Physicians (Fellow) and the federal Emergency Care Coordinating Committee.   Dr. Rogers received his medical degree from the University of Virginia. Listeners with an interest in Carpenter's Shelter see: http://www.carpentersshelter.org/.For more general information see, for example, the National Healthcare for the Homeless Council's website at: http://www.nhchc.org/.  This is a public episode.
