@preinfarction Using formal rationality to debias, noticing what you care about, optimizing for that (maybe effective altruism), all good.

@preinfarction To overcome the forces dragging people away from that in the first place though, we could use better incentive systems.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

@preinfarction The most frustrating "irrational" behaviours are responses to perverse incentives due to lost purposes within organizations.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

@preinfarction Economics has been the name under which we study formal rationality; also has excellent tools for this.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@preinfarction More focus in rationalist circles on mechanism design, organizing groups to produce good behaviour, would be cool.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

@MemberOfSpecies@preinfarction Very nearly everyone pays lipservice. Also money is a very real coordination mechanism, fairly effective.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like
@MemberOfSpecies @preinfarction People don't think if that as cooperation *because* it's so effective. Need that for cases it doesn't solve.

@ProofOfLogic@preinfarction Coordination and cooperation are different in game theory, right? Although probably related in various ways.1 reply 0 retweets 3 likes -
