somehow when i first saw this i missed the 2 nearly identical lower case y’s and 2 nearly identical upper case V’s and 2 nearly identical upper case L’s and 2 nearly identical upper case S’s (plus a B and an Esse) and distinct double-u and double-v

absolutely fucking bonkers that i can run a windows game seamlessly on ultra graphics quality through a compat layer on an m5 macbook air, while on a merely 2 year old windows machine it gasps for air at mediocre settings and a lower screen resolution

Worried about the state of society? Have you considered withdrawing to a hermetic retreat to preserve virtue and knowledge until someone who recognizes and will make use of those traits seeks you out?

let me rephrase then, i don't think you need to believe anything in particular about how humans actually act as agents (or put another way, what their utility functions look like) to point out that there are objectively unoptimal ways to behave that still look tempting or even obvious at a glance

Peters is very interested in whether or not the behavior of economic agents is better modeled with an understanding of non-ergodic processes (as opposed to expected value maximization). it's interesting but if you want to talk about non-ergodic systems you can just use dynamical systems theory
