@mattyglesias Willard Van Orman Quine. I wrote a paper on him for Prof. Fleming's intellectual history course senior year at Harvard.

@Rohanburdened @GMJacobAagaard But as a professional player, Magnus would get an impression of the opponent's play and be suspicious of someone who seemed like they were getting computer support. In fact, we know that he's quite sensitive to this -- see the Hans affair.

@Rohanburdened @GMJacobAagaard Just to be clear, the fact that Magnus played so much with Danya *is* good evidence that Danya wasn't a cheater. When Magnus said there were ways of cheating that are undetectable, he meant that there wouldn't be enough outside evidence to prove the cheating.

@SimTheWorld I'm not sure of what your definition is of faster and slower decks, but I agree that the best response function deck-by-deck can be found on HSReplay. What my analysis does is to generalize this to the entire universe of top decks.

@nepplol I can't share the data, since it's proprietary, but I can send you the code if you msg me your email address.

Hello World! Reactivating this account after a long while. I wrote an article applying game theory to #Hearthstone, soon to be published on the @HSReplay website.

@thomasp85 This looks very cool. Could you post/have you posted the corresponding code?

[HSNash @Upper_Pepper]

@ma_salmon @dataandme @rweekly_live Ooooh, thanks for the reply. I hadn't seen that recent post on blogdown by @Miketreggs. And I didn't know about @rweekly_live either. I'll give it a go.

@joelgrus If I offer you 24, can I get the first one you slough off??

#rstats Newbie question: what platforms and tools do people use to write R blog posts? I have a Medium account, but I don't know if it's easy to post code there. I can write Rmd documents just fine, but then is it easy to post them online somewhere? Any help is appreciated.
