Protocol Pulse IV

Das Protokoll ist gut!!

Novus Protocolus

• Army members’ faltering fitness levels spur update to training protocol.

• Das Protokoll, a collection of essays on protocol studies, was published in German by AdminiStudies last year (not new, but newly found).

• Medical trial protocols are strict and unwieldy. Could hard-coding them unlock a revolution?

• Protocols for Organizations, an open-participation project to surface protocol case studies in business, government, and society, launched a wiki site.

Other Things I Liked

• The recommended reading list hidden in The Sims user manual.

• A scathing analysis of the American higher education system from Epsilon Theory.

• A bike with triangular wheels (the superior form of transportation).

• Intel’s ad about standards nerds being heroes (from Amateur Technology).

• And, not that I like it, but Neuralink had its first human trial.
