Listen ""Humans are not automatically strategic" by Anna Salamon"
Episode Synopsis
https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/PBRWb2Em5SNeWYwwB/humans-are-not-automatically-strategicReply to: A "Failure to Evaluate Return-on-Time" FallacyLionhearted writes:[A] large majority of otherwise smart people spend time doing semi-productive things, when there are massively productive opportunities untapped.A somewhat silly example: Let's say someone aspires to be a comedian, the best comedian ever, and to make a living doing comedy. He wants nothing else, it is his purpose. And he decides that in order to become a better comedian, he will watch re-runs of the old television cartoon 'Garfield and Friends' that was on TV from 1988 to 1995....I’m curious as to why.
