@virgil_30 What is the adverse selection issue?

[Christoph Schlom @cschlom]

@IsaacKing314 sounds like a reasonable approach would be to find all equilibria and then do a green light (in all equilibria this table should draw)/yellow light (in some eq this table should draw)/red light (in no eq...) thing

@momin_rayhan @OliviaBordeu @gk_ben @LillianRusk @TheKarthikS Haha thanks Ray

@Andrew___Baker @john_voorheis Where/why did he say this? Is there a paper?

[Christoph Schlom @cschlom]

@ElliotLip @ben_golub @mattyglesias I think I would call nature flipping coins "how a stationary world looks to you if you're an uninformed expert," and I'd contend that nature's sequences that lead to varied predictions are non-stationary

[Christoph Schlom @cschlom]

@ElliotLip @ben_golub @mattyglesias I feel a bit confused by the Foster-Vohra setup, but maybe the question is: suppose you're playing one of these winning algorithms as the forecaster, and nature just flips coins every time. Are your predictions bunched around 0.5? (I would guess yes.)

@CFCamerer Would like to read the paper but getting a Caltech login screen

@lugaricano Is this how macro people think of booms, or is the anecdote not meant to extend that far, or am I confused? Input from any macro folks welcome, I'm a clueless micro guy :)

[Christoph Schlom @cschlom]

@lugaricano This was fantastic, thanks for sharing.

Re the monetary shock: it seems that if we take the model seriously, booms are bad for the park (vendors are no longer selling at the profit maximizing price + are scrambling for staff + [presumably] some uninformed patrons don't show up)

@ajlvi I think I can tell you how our pod went if that's of interest

[Christoph Schlom @cschlom]

@mtghofbot @Nathansteuer1 sounds like it was for a good cause :D

[Christoph Schlom @cschlom]

@ShahMaht64 @cailinmeister Haha I mean something like this: https://t.co/tJRtwqj3bY but I wasn't sure if there was something in the philosophy literature

@Devin_G_Pope Not a basketball person but that 80 is interesting, seems like overshooting might be natural (in minute T-10 you start padding, then once you're at 10 a "natural" rebound comes along so you take it)

@PaulsonJonathan I don't follow but this is incredible
