What about Doc in siege? I don't feel like he's a bottom.

I was about to throw hands, but then I learned something new about how SSDs store data in pre-argument research. My poor SSDs. I've been killing them.

I used it to set up a company laptop less than a month ago.

Don't connect to the internet.

Open a cmd window with F10 (maybe it's shift-F10?) and type the following:

OOBE\\BYPASSNRO

You can thank me later.

Is this "road" in the room with us right now?

  1. Ubiquitous; insane amount of libraries and probably some of the best documentation of any language
  2. JS lambda function syntax is nice

Outlook is a fucking mess. I wanted to search for a keyword in a long-ass email yesterday, so of course I did ^F, like a normal person would. That opened the dialog to write and send a reply??? Why???

And web browser outlook having no keyboard shortcuts whatsoever is fucking criminal.

Exactly. The point it was making is that perfect top-down coordination takes a ton of resources for a whole lotta nothing.

PRT is kinda like this, but they don't link together.

I was slightly wrong. From page 237 of Algorithms to Live By, The Computer Science of Human Decisions by Brian Christian and Tom Griffiths, further referencing the paper How Bad is Selfish Routing? by Roughgarden and Tardos, it says that

"...the "selfish routing" approach [of cars] has a price of anarchy that's a mere 4/3. That is, a free-for-all is only 33% worse than perfect top-down coordination."

Anyways, the way they got to that number is mathematical game theory. In this case people will choose the fastest route which happens to not be so bad.

It's also very possible that what they're concluding is significantly abstracted, but I haven't read the source reference to know for sure.
