This places the line between what can and can't be measured in an odd place, is always my problem with it https://twitter.com/Chris_arnade/status/1141350267960664064 …

paraphrasing a quote, it tends to go something like this: First they measure what is easy to measure, which is all well and good, but then they forget about things that are hard to measure, and then what becomes measurable becomes the goal, and finally the goal no matter what.

Not taking time to think of the second and third order criteria is a sort of laziness, a sort of laziness that is enabled and encouraged by bureaucracies where those making the decision have no skin in the game.

If it's not laziness, it's malevolence or ignorance. Any other option that I'm missing?

think I actually mostly agree A lot of my job is (i) measuring things; (ii) watching the teams I work with overindex on those things I'm measuring; (iii) scrambling to measure new things that are obviously important but suddenly ignored because something else is better-measured

Maybe I'm totally misunderstanding what you're both talking about -- you're agreeing with Arnade right
