»I've owned a copy of Ludwig Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations for years, but I read it the way Everett Hughes told me to read the sociological writings of Georg Simmel: not to get a full understanding of what the author might have meant, but rather as a way of generating ideas I could use in my own research and thinking.« (Howard Becker, »Tricks of the Trade«)

#heuristic #algorithms #optimization #prediction #search #fitCheck
New logic flow to make guesswork faster:
4 iterations, down from 6 but boy I'm getting lost in implementation:
---
Simplified example flow:
Start at true center
Set up array on winning side
n₀+1 vs n₁₈-1 ➝ n₉ high or low ➝ immediately guess n₆+1 or n₁₂-1---
n₀+1 vs n₁₈-1
n₀+1 too big & n₁₈-1 too small?
Then check n₉
if closer to n₀ Immeditely guess n₆+1
if closer to n₁₈ Immeditely guess n₁₂-1Continued below...

Heuristic (Ecogeographic rules 🌍)
A heuristic or heuristic technique is any approach to problem solving that employs a pragmatic method that is not fully optimized, perfected, or rationalized, but is nevertheless "good enough" as an approximation or attribute substitution. Where finding an optimal solution is impossible or impractical, heuristic methods can be used to s...

The Benefits and Dangers of #DecisionMmaking by Algorithm https://conversableeconomist.com/2025/03/27/the-benefits-and-dangers-of-decision-making-by-algorithm/
"Even if the #algorithm does a better job than most humans, some humans will do better than the algorithm.
The gain from using algorithms in many contexts is relatively small in percentage terms, although a small percentage gain applied to a large number of people can certainly be meaningful.
People are more unforgiving of algorithmic error than of human error.
Greater complexity will limit the benefit of an algorithm.
Algorithms are not good, and perhaps cannot be good, at what are sometimes called path-dependent events"
