ADHD is an optimal stopping pathology in the recursive explore/exploit problem, wherein one overvalues opportunity cost due to a scarcity mindset learned in early childhood from unreliability of the provider, incentivizing exploration of other strategies

so many problems we face boil down to timing explore/exploit decisions; too late, and you've optimized-for-optionality your way into scarcity. too early, and you've …

this is a subtweet of grown ass adult white collar professionals I'm drastically overpaying for worse service and excuses than I get from my interns. bro I don't give a fuck about your excuses either do my work or refund me and shut the fuck up jfc

take care with your belief structures, for they use you as much as you use them. there is no memetic free lunch; each meme you let inside your mind is a gamble against cordyception. over a long-enough time horizon, no one is immune.
I've written a bit re: how ideology shapes/guides the structure of one's thoughts & the various pathologies it can generate; institutions captured by a given ideological frame are even more vulnerable to these failure modes than individuals are

similar to how your vision is filtered & shaped by your perceptive apparatus, your beliefs and observations are interpreted through your epistemic exoskeleton, ie your ideolog…

particularly liked this one; attachment to illusory forms is the root of much suffering, and the only way out is to confront the dynamic nature of reality; everything is process, there is no form

agent simulations weren't too popular historically for a variety of reasons (computational challenges, claims of overengineering, etc) but many real-world systems are sufficiently complex that assumptions of global homogeneity simply don't hold
v glad to see attitudes changing
generally I'm majorly in favor of agent-based models for simulating any domain where network topology is salient (ie where internode interactions are heterogenous and cliquey)
even probabilistic variants tend to better model real-world dynamics than purely analytic approaches
