Personally, I like the book for the examples. There are too many Game Theory books with a bias towards Economics, and that gets stale after a while. Instead of competing factories, this book on political game theory gives you interesting pr

Whoever downvoted this, would you please care to explain why? You don't like NP? If so, why? Or don't you like the fact that there are high-caliber people in other forums because that makes you feel small? AFAIK, there is one Fields medalli

Category Theory is more than just abstract nonsense. It's mathematical archery ;-)

In my opinion, it is rare to find such high-caliber comments on /. these days. Here's a transcript: ---------------------------------------------------- First two minor points, then I'll get to the real subject, the math of evolution. theo

In case you didn't notice, the blog post is on how a group of friends can split the bill in an efficient manner. It has little to do with securities. Of course, if it had to do with securities, then your points would be right on target. Tha

My reading list is biased towards the "why". Funny that I left out the "how" and only noticed it now. I have read a bit on carpentry, but like I said before arts & crafts can be learned from someone who knows more, in a sort of master a

"If you actually spent a lifetime reading those books I don't think you'd really get any closer to understanding the core of the human experience." True. But I might understand Nature herself. I would like to have a solid grasp of the bas

The list was supposed to be for "those who love to learn". Well, if it's learning one cares about, then anything that is not deep knowledge is suspicious. Truth be told, the OP did not sell his reading list as one for "those who love to lea

Actually, I have read a bunch of them. They're good airport reads. I can't read Feynman during a flight with the babies crying and the roar of the engines, but I can read Godin, Taleb, etc for entertainment. Those books teach nothing deep,

Business and marketing are learned by doing. I have never heard of Jobs reading marketing books. Godin, Gladwell, etc are for the sheep. I remember reading that Jurvetson read poetry and philosophy books instead of business books. Draw your

For each, his own. I like working with my hands. Personally, I am into carpentry. It's relaxing and I like to see stuff being build. It just happens that carpentry is learned by doing (especially from someone who knows more), not by reading

My good sir, if you do think Feynman, Knuth, Cover, Isidori, etc are junk, then you are a monster . What you have just said is equivalent to saying that van Gogh's works are just boring blobs of paint, or that Lord Byron didn't know how to
