with the old transactional models, but it looks like, with our first 1,000 members, we outperformed existing services by a factor of three, at a fraction of the cost.
But today, we need to bring people and their communities back into the heart of the way we design new
systems
and new services, in an approach that I call "Relational Welfare."
We need to leave behind these old, transactional, unsuitable, outdated models, and we need to adopt instead the shared collective relational responses that can support a family like Ella's, that can address an issue like loneliness, that can support people into work and up the skills curve in a modern labor market, that can also address challenges of education, of health care systems, and so many more of those problems that are pressing on our societies.

systems
in remote refugee centers in Switzerland and Greece.

systems
over at Lawrence Berkeley Labs.
So just as on Earth, clunky stereo
systems
have shrunk to beautiful, tiny iPods, maybe intelligent life itself, in order to reduce its footprint on the environment, has turned itself microscopic, so the Solar System might be teeming with aliens, and we're just not noticing them.
This system has worked well for mammals, but throughout the tree of life, we can see other
systems
that have worked just as well for other animals.
There are other groups of animals that also have genetic sex determination, but their
systems
can be pretty different from ours.
Ants, for example, have one of the most interesting
systems
for determining sex, and because of it, if you are a male ant, you do not have a father.
So we could think of architecture as complex
systems
of relationships, both in a programmatic and functional way and in an experiential and emotive or social way.
It reminds one of biology classes, if you remember the human body with all its organs and circulatory systems, like at school.
If we're talking about geometric shapes, with specific, culturally recognized, agreed-upon meanings, than we could very well be looking at one of the oldest
systems
of graphic communication in the world.
But it's important to remember that those early writing
systems
didn't come out of a vacuum.
The structures that they build protect our shorelines from storm surge and waves, and the biological
systems
that they house filter the water and make it safer for us to work and play.
But these
systems
house millions and millions of other species, and that diversity is what stabilizes the systems, and it's where we're finding our new medicines.
Jessica Matthews, inventor of the SOCCKET line of sports products, like soccer balls, that generate renewable energy as you play with them, said it this way: "A major part of invention isn't just creating things, it's understanding people and understanding the
systems
that make this world."
Because it's also useful in studying curves, pi helps us understand periodic or oscillating
systems
like clocks, electromagnetic waves, and even music.
As a second example, imagine an allied group of nations cooperatively infiltrating the computer
systems
of an enemy nation's nuclear warship.
This figure here shows the stormwater park that they're building by hooking a series of stormwater collection systems, or storm sewers, and routing that water into an abandoned gravel quarry.
Because once we build the first few water recycling
systems
close to the sewage treatment plant, we have to build longer and longer pipe networks to get that water to where it needs to go.
These chemical
systems
help regulate and reduce pain.
Well, there are many treatments for pain, targeting different
systems.
But before we can examine how clouds affect the sun's rays and electricity production, let's see how these solar energy
systems
work.
But when we say solar energy systems, we're usually talking about photovoltaics, or solar panels, which are the
systems
most commonly used to generate solar power.
Because the physics that governs the behavior of
systems
at such small scales is much different than the physics of the macroscopic objects you see around you all the time.
But
systems
on the scale of atoms behave according to the laws of quantum mechanics.
The same sort of thing happens to physical
systems
at quantum scales, like an electron orbiting in a hydrogen atom.
So I undertook what we call a
systems
biology approach in order to get a comprehensive understanding of desiccation tolerance, in which we look at everything from the molecular to the whole plant, ecophysiological level.
Even though we now know much more about the
systems
that govern the human body, these Greek ideas about sadness resonate with current views, not on the sadness we all occasionally feel, but on clinical depression.
It turns out that we're fighting one of the most evolutionarily-conserved learning processes currently known in science, one that's conserved back to the most basic nervous
systems
known to man.
