In Hidden Games w/ @Moshe_Hoffman, we apply game theory, a toolkit usually used to study auctions or mergers, to more personal, everyday questions about our sense of rights, beauty, altruism, etc. Out in April, after just 8 years.

Many thanks to my coauthors S Carattini, K Gillingham, and X Meng, who apparently are on Twitter even less than I am, as well as to the editor and our excellent referees.

@the_transit_guy I agree with 99.9% of your posts, as well as with your motivation for this one, but... As anyone who has ridden a bicycle knows, thicker seats aren't necessarily more comfortable. Burning less fuel to carry seats into the air is a good thing.

@moshik_temkin's new book about historical leaders is out today. I'm excited to read (well, listen to) it, and thought I'd pass along the rec.

@yaelbt @AOC @RashidaTlaib Uh, @AOC was unambiguous in her condemnation of Hamas. Here she is calling for the release of Israeli hostages:

Taking hostages is a clear and undeniable war crime. Taking kids as hostages is particularly abhorrent. Hamas, for moral and not just strategic reasons, must release the hostages.

@varsha_venkat_ It's key. But my guess: in a counterfactual world with no Declaration, the Jewish population of Israel grows at roughly the same rate, with some other event or declaration taking its place.

@varsha_venkat_ At the risk of fact-checking a joke, I think this is actually false.
