@St_Rev Isn't he? Newcomb works with imperfect predictors. -
@GrumplessGrinch Newcomb amounts to saying "here is X. X = 5, and also X = 10. Is X < 7?" -
@St_Rev errr. no. I honestly don't even know how you'd arrive at this belief. -
@GrumplessGrinch Okey-dokey. -
@St_Rev Sorry, let me rephrase. I am confused, why do you think that? -
@GrumplessGrinch The Predictor's choice is made before you, but also after you. There's a bunch of chaff in the setup to distract from this. -
@St_Rev No. The order of choosing is A. simulated me, B. the predictor, C. me now. A and C are the same but C doesn't know A. -
@GrumplessGrinch You just did it again, man.
