The Church of Rationality. Willkommen im Schwitzkasten der Halbbildung! Ich habe den Eindruck, dass der Empfehlungsalgorithmus von rebuy noch verbesserungsbedürftig ist. Ich habe zwar noch nie was von Jojo Moyes gelesen, vermute aber, dass mir das nicht gefallen würde. Ich beurteile Bücher nämlich gern nach ihrem Umschlag.

The Church of Rationality: Playlists by Year: A Tape Side's Worth of 1954
http://churchofrationality.blogspot.com/2014/10/playlists-by-year-tape-sides-worth-of.html
The Church of Rationality. Willkommen im Schwitzkasten der Halbbildung! Playlists by Year: A Tape Side's Worth of 1954. Never mind the best-of-the-decade-type lists. Starting today, we'll go year by year. Each playlist will be as long as one standard tape's side. That is, no longer than 45 minutes. The first is 1954, for the simple reason that it is the first I could get a good 45 minutes together; it is also the year that rock'n'roll broke. And here's the first list:.

The Church of Rationality: Genetics, Human Capital, and the Thomas Theorem
http://churchofrationality.blogspot.com/2015/01/genetics-human-capital-and-thomas.html
The Church of Rationality. Willkommen im Schwitzkasten der Halbbildung! Genetics, Human Capital, and the Thomas Theorem. But that's a normative point. Empirically, how much people plan to invest in their kids and how many kids they hence choose to have, should be influenced not by the truth itself, but by what people believe. If men define situations as real, they are real in their consequences. So thats called the Thomas Theorem? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). My Blog of Quotes. Lost in the Funhouse.

The Church of Rationality: Does Altruism Exist? Against the "Warm Glow" Argument
http://churchofrationality.blogspot.com/2014/12/does-altruism-exist-against-warm-glow.html
The Church of Rationality. Willkommen im Schwitzkasten der Halbbildung! Against the "Warm Glow" Argument. Models of human decision-making are just that: models, not the real thing. Another way to put this is to say that models are wrong. As the famous saying goes, all models are wrong, but some are useful. This leads to the question, useful for what? That is, just because a model is useful in one domain, doesn't mean it's useful in another domain. Bryan Caplan is not one of those people. He points out.

The Church of Rationality. Willkommen im Schwitzkasten der Halbbildung! It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest. Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations. Overjoyed, yet slightly appalled that Richard would even think of, let alone do, such a thing, the man gave him ten thousand dollars for the contract, and a second ten thousand dollars for the incredible suffering the mark had experienced.

The Church of Rationality: Cops Don't Shoot People, Guns Do
http://churchofrationality.blogspot.com/2014/12/cops-dont-shoot-people-guns-do.html
The Church of Rationality. Willkommen im Schwitzkasten der Halbbildung! Cops Don't Shoot People, Guns Do. I'm a fan of the right to keep and bear arms. But I prefer unarmed police and restricted gun rights to strong gun rights combined with a police force that regularly shoots civilians 'by accident'.
