I'm beginning to question the assumption that exploration is a quality of good decision making. In human work, it assumes that people have lived safe lives where seeking information has resulted in good outcomes. This is not a valid assumption for much of humanity.

Right. Take a deep breath. 🥵
After the #NoConfidenceVote I have reworked my Brexit flow diagram.
🚨 The events of the last two days have made this more complex, not less. And there are more loops than before.

2/2 – Also true that *other* extremely hard part of the job, apart from making decisions, is persuading others to go along with you. That *generally* requires seeing them in person — Rep/Sens, foreign leaders, crowds that don't already agree w you. Time alloc crucial part of job

1/2 Two contradictory truths about "executive time" for presidents:
– It's really true that, in normal circumstances, a prez's time is *most* precious commodity, and must be ferociously guarded to allow chance to think, second-guess, recharge. So "blank" time. is precious time.— James Fallows (@JamesFallows) February 4, 2019

Why do employers pay extra money to people who study a bunch of subjects in college that they don’t actually need you to know? Signaling. Interesting article about economics professor Bryan Caplan https://t.co/fuMPEAELJb

Almost ALL of them loved people who made them laugh:
'That magician is so silly! His pants fell down and I couldn't stop laughing!'
'My daddy pulls funny faces which I just love!'
'The boy in the next bed farted! Hahaha!'Laughter relieves pain. /9
