      I think the most under-rated idea is ergodicity. If I could bet on an idea over the next 10 years, that’d be it.https://aeon.co/ideas/how-ergodicity-reimagines-economics-for-the-benefit-of-us-all …

      I just read the article and didn’t get much out of it. (Didn’t get specific enough.) Is there a follow-up article you’d recommend?

      This is a good thing to write about! I’ll type something up... Here is the ultra-compressed version from @normonics who once spent almost an hour explaining the concept to me on Zoom 🙏🏼https://twitter.com/normonics/status/1103001406192214016?s=20 …

      do I get the same info if I (1) look at one trajectory across time (2) look at a bunch of trajectories at 1 instant If yes: ergodic. If not: non-ergodic.

      Thanks, that was helpful. It sounds like the thesis is that standard economic models don’t handle non-ergodicity very well.

          Ya thats my understanding. Expected values are misleading unless you're getting lots of N. For coin tosses, great. For career path, maybe not?

          This is my understanding as well. The place where it falls apart in practice is that what is good for the many is not necessarily good for the one.
