👋 Favourite daily quotes from readwise.io/@louis
Confirmation bias was the technical term; it meant, among other things, that when you chose your information sources, there was a notable tendency to choose information sources that agreed with your current opinions.
Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality
Eliezer Yudkowsky
Why has that man fallen in love with that woman? Because she's pretty. Why does pretty matter? Because human beings are a mainly monogamous species and so males are choosy about their mates (as male chimpanzees are not); prettiness is an indication of youth and health, which are indications of fertility: Why does that man care about fertility in his mate? Because if he did not, his genes would be eclipsed by those of men who did. Why does he care about that? He does not, but his genes act as if they do. Those who choose infertile mates leave no descendants. Therefore, everybody is descended from men who preferred fertile women, and every person inherits from those ancestors the same preference.
The Red Queen: Sex and the Evolution of Human Nature
Matt Ridley
If you could get all the people in an organization rowing in the same direction, you could dominate any industry, in any market, against any competition, at any time.
