I also have to resist the social pressure to read HPMOR

To be fair, the FAQ doesn't even contain the words "self-fulfilling prediction", and doesn't talk about the dangers that happen when you plug a thing that can take actions (government) into a powerful optimizer (the market), so I'm not 100% sold on it either
