@el33th4xor@NickSzabo4@adam3us@twobitidiot@zooko Emin, "game theoretic" just means "how peeps make decisions".#Bitcoin depends on that.
@Daniel_Plante @el33th4xor @adam3us @twobitidiot Need to start w/ reliable, objective CSci results. Else the econ is even worse than usual.

@NickSzabo4@el33th4xor@adam3us@twobitidiot Nick, economics is the bottom line. Energy, skill, time, product, survival. You can't eat CS. -
@Daniel_Plante@el33th4xor@adam3us@twobitidiot Do you eat Bitcoin? Comp scientists analyze programs, which run on computers. -
@Daniel_Plante@el33th4xor@adam3us@twobitidiot Economists etc., in sharp contrast, speculate about almost entirely hidden preferences etc. -
@NickSzabo4@el33th4xor@adam3us@twobitidiot Nick, real economics (applied physics) is not "economists" - those mostly game-theoretic-lie. -
@Daniel_Plante@el33th4xor@adam3us@twobitidiot If think econ is "applied physics" --> way into Feynman cargo cult science territory. -
@Daniel_Plante@el33th4xor@adam3us@twobitidiot Feynman on cargo cult science (pretending to be physics): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvfAtIJbatg … -
@NickSzabo4@el33th4xor@adam3us@twobitidiot Generally, it just boils down to entropy.
