WIP for planning  some relevant online M&S Learning Communities for Health

To develop insights regarding a situation of interest there are a number of things should be considered to ensure a view of the relevant influences.

Original Insight (#1366) by Gene Bellinger

New Learning tend to reduce Outdated Thinking, Communicating & Learning though our Outdated Thinking, Communicating & Learning inhibits new learning. The question is then how do we break this cycle. Adopted from "An Introduction to Systems Thinking with STELLA" by Barry Richmond.

Causal loop diagram based on my Gemini interaction exploring how category theory may assist needs and resource planning and management to improve reliability and performance, inspired by Emery Roe's 2013 book Making the Most of Mess: Reliability and Policy in Today's Management Challenges. Use of Gene Bellinger's AI prompts

This is a stock-flow consistent model, namely the simplest (SIM) model with government money.

(I had to change the equation for consumption demand. Disposable income and wealth now enterwith a time lag of one period. Otherwise the model would be recursive and would not be solvable in Insight Maker. Thanks to Gene for support.)

CLD based on Modern Monetary Theory and Marxism transcript of Macro and Cheese podcast Jan 2026 and gemini  interaction using Gene Bellinger's  AI prompts, including about State Money and the Class Struggle

This is a stock-flow consistent model, namely the simplest (SIM) model with government money. I have added imports and exports and an exchange rate which has an influence on consumption demand via real disposable income and real foreign demand.

Godley/Lavoie (2006), chapter 3

(I had to change the equation for consumption demand. The disposable income now enters with a time lag of one period. Otherwise the model would be recursive and would not work in Insight Maker. Thanks to Gene for support.)

Comparison of Critical and Pragmatic Realism, based on my gemini interaction May2026 using Gene Bellinger's AI prompts

Our computer model details the change in allele frequency of resistant mosquitoes in Africa when the government began spraying DDT. The few mosquitoes that naturally survived the chemical sprays reproduced, and created a large population of resistant mosquitoes. When DDT was sprayed later to prevent the spread of malaria, the DDT was not as effective because of the large amount of DDT-resistant phenotypes in the population.

We often set out to solve a problem or accomplish some particular result and things seem to go as planned. As time progresses it seems that progress becomes more and more difficult, if not impossible, and things may actually become worse than when we started. When this happens it is typically a Fixes that Fail structure that's operating. See also Archetypes.
