'Staying within the lines' is why game theory doesn't actually work as a good predictor of human behaviour.
- rwnspace 9y agoNot when applied without wisdom, but it's an excellent predictor of subsets of human behaviour, and a subset of those generalise well enough to satisfactorily explain existing phenomena. Simply because one has to be selective doesn't make it unworkable. It does make for misleading headlines, though.
- logfromblammo 9y agoSimple laziness theory dictates that one should open a window and use a mirror on a telescoping pole (aka "inspection mirror") to better see around the snowdrift, and make liberal use of your vehicle's horn as you make your somewhat-less-than-blind turn. If you really want to cooperate, buy two, and sell one to your neighbor at cost. I really hate, hate, hate shoveling snow.
