      Great convo with @tarunchitra who was involved with Facebook's Libra. He describes how @gauntletnetwork runs simulations to see how design choices will affect a token once it's live + discusses Facebook's consensus algorithm, programming language and coin. https://unchainedpodcast.com/not-sure-a-cryptoeconomic-system-will-work-gauntlet-can-help/ …

      3/ @seanjtaylor (who I respect tremendously) had this tweet a while back that was a little disheartening. But, he was right — the did experience a winter.

      I think ultimately this methodology could help unlock the promise of agent-based models (ABMs), an older line of research that has been mostly abandoned. If we learn a model of how ABM simulations map to to real empirical results, they may stop being toys.

      I was super excited about them before grad school. It felt like such a cool idea that you could study people by programming their behaviors and interactions. My theory is that increasingly available large scale online data was a strong substitute.

      Replying to @seanjtaylor @generativist

      The tl;dr on agent-based and other simulation models, at least for #causalinference, is that for each piece of individual-level data you replace with an assumption (including group-level rates, probs, etc), you need to also add add’l causal assumptions or you’ll get bias.

      The number of causal assumptions can get unmanageably large pretty quickly, but in theory you can write them all out for any given simulation model, so you could use ABMs or similar for causal inference but it’s not an easy task.

      Some day in the near-future — probably after I find my next employment/startup — I really want and need to read more of your work, Ellie :)
