That is true, if is only convincing for people who can understand the code.

That is true, if is only convincing for people who can understand the code.
- ci5er 8y agoI don't think I'm a sociopath, but often I use monte-carlo or agent based simulations to help me understand what happens, because writing and running the code is simpler (for me) than closed form analytic solutions. IF I then need to convince others, I guess I can do the closed-form solution (based on the prior intuition), but since I don't really care whether anyone agrees with me or not (I go develop 'engines' in my corner of "the system"), I guess their opinion is immaterial to my/group/company progress? Do you think that agent-based computational simulations (say of micro-economics bubbling into creating emergent macro-economics) are ever used in debates?
