Conceptual alchemy

@f4grx @gigabecquerel average path-length to epsilon-perturbed ensemble of path-dependent equilibria maybe

@f4grx @gigabecquerel hm, maybe more complex systems take longer to reach equilibrium.. M

@f4grx @gigabecquerel aren't machines usually only in equilibrium?

@f4grx @gigabecquerel interesting claim! Would you coaim that undisturbed ecosystems are more in equilibrium than curdent markets?

(dunno how I'd define that)

@gigabecquerel similar for others in other categories I would guess, even (epspecially maybe?) printers

@gigabecquerel but then again I really care abt differences in products whoch other people don't (I spent ~6 hours recently on finding the right lightbulbs!)

@gigabecquerel okay, I didn't know this was abt difficult choice

Yeah there's the problem of humans overanalyzing trivial choices, randomization helps

Mathematical theory of hypothesis formation: who's working on this?

Characterize the spectrum between the inductive and the deductive
