Errata for Pragmatic Thinking and Learning

#33937: [2nd full paragraph, 2nd sentence] "Feedback from coders to architecture, requirements, and even business process has traditionally been..." --> "Feedback from coders REGARDING architecture, requirements, and even business PROCESSES has traditionally been..." || "Feedback from coders to THOSE WHO DEFINE architecture, requirements, and even business PROCESSES has traditionally been..." [Changes in CAPS for Erratum clarity only]

#33938: [2nd full P, last sentence] "Agile methods help to promote this feedback and utilize it effectively, ..." --> "Agile methods help to enable better feedback from coders and utilize it effectively, ..."
"promote this" might be misinterpreted as promoting the implementation of "something they know is wrong" (from the previous sentence).

#33939: Figure "H" is split between two pages. May want to ensure that typesetting keeps it all on one page (along with "Consider the following figure:" and the associated footnote).

Will be fixed in final typeset, thanks. -- /\ndy

#33993: "But if you take it for granted, you fall into the symbolic reduction fallacy." --> "... you can fall ..."
[Failure to Predict, 1st para, last sent.]
(with or without "can" is probably fine, depending on how strong a statement you want to make)

#33994: [end of 1st full para] "An awful lot **of possible events** can hide in this hole, and we get blind-sided by these kinds of unexpected events."

Currently, "unexpected events" is the first use of the term "events" in this section, which makes "these kinds" an open reference.
Could also consider modifying the previous sentence to include the word "events": "But this approach of reducing **the events of** reality..."
Or remove "these kinds" from the original sentence: "... we get blind-sided by unexpected events **hiding there.**"

#33995: Consider adding 2 "that"'s:
[end of 2nd full para] "Be comfortable with the fact **that** you don't know."

[3rd para] "... without appreciating **that** there's a 20% chance it won't happen."

--Chris Imershein

#33997: [top para, last sent.] "... the biases that drive any **other** particular generation will be different from the biases that drive you and your peers."
(If the particular generation is MY generation, then those biases will likely be very similar to those that drive me and my peers -- or should that be my peers and I? ;-) ;-)
--Chris Imershein

#33999: [clips from end of p135 to top of p136] "...the terrorist attacks of 9/11 were a major, shared global event,... ...your reaction to those events will differ..." -->
"...your reaction to **that event** will differ..." OR
"...your reaction to **those attacks** will differ..."
(Make more parallel if possible)
--Chris Imershein

#34000: [near top] "Here are a couple of axes I can think of:" --> "Here are a few aspects..." || "dimensions" || "facets"

(While "axes" is a perfectly valid plural of "axis" and may be the best word here, I couldn't help but think of the plural of "ax" -- guess I need a whack to the side of the head! :-)
--Chris Imershein

#34001: Perhaps a clearer, more iconic photo could be used for the Baby Boom Generation? (no particular suggestions, but the current one seems to lack something)
Also, I'm assuming the Gen X photo is still to be added on p139 (unless the empty white box is supposed to symbolize individualism :-)
