Trust ( a definition in a video)
As I was suggesting on Paolo Massa weblog (thank you Paolo for the initial pagerank), I ran in this insightful video about Trusted Computing . It is very well made, simple and effective, the trust definition given needs special remark:
Trust is the personal believe in correctness of s.th. .
It is the deep conviction of truth and rightness, and can not be enforced.
If you gain s.o. trust, you have estabilished an interpersonal relationship, based on communication, shared values and experiences.TRUST always depends on mutuality.
As I am currently reading “The Tao of Physics”, the focus on interactions and on the dynamic aspect of this definition is enlightening (”you have estabilished an interpersonal relationship, based on communication, shared values and experiences” in the cited definition). A static and apriori approach in defining what s.o. can trust is doomed to fail, like a static approach in defining speed and position of a subatomic particle does not hold for every experiment; the observer is interwingled with the experiment . Rigid and execessively bureucratic systems don’t take in account the observer viewpoint, don’t accept change and innoviation, are unable to sway with failure.
