I was really enjoying the article until I realized there is zero attribution to the book _Thinking in Bets_, which IMO this is obviously heavily influenced by.

But there IS this?

> [13] Not a reference to the book, which I haven’t read — this is just a phrase I use

Seems to me an unwillingness to cite / give proper attribution to Annie Duke and the book, which is super weird? At any rate I’d highly recommend the book.

The author specifically said he didn't ready the book.

  • My point is that I think that the author is lying. I think that he read the book, took many of the ideas (e.g., truth seeking), pawned them off as his own novel ideas, and explicitly did not give attribution which I think is extremely weird.
