YSK : Dark patterns among large companies are becoming more mainstream

While it is no secret that exploitative practices are interlaced with capitalistic tendencies, the practices are becoming intolerable. Signing up to pay usually takes only two clicks that are prominently visible whereas cancelation options are hidden away in deep settings requiring multiple clicks. Pricing often feel arbitrary with no reference points. Every large company grows with the intention of exhibiting monopolistic behavior. This is not sustainable and should not be tolerated.

Frontiers | Handwriting but not typewriting leads to widespread brain connectivity: a high-density EEG study with implications for the classroom
  • Is Frontiers considered predatory or not? Some people give me a lot of shit for citing frontiers and mdpi. But in my defense those articles were already well cited. But in a overall sense I have noticed that most articles from both those groups look poorly written.

  • How would you rank vegan imitation products?
  • I am not a vegan but I like almond milk/ oat milk to be better than dairy milk. I find that dairy milk has a weird smell in the US that I am not accustomed to. Also it weirds me out that dairy milk from the grocery stores takes weeks to spoil.

  • YSK : Moral values of being nice, forgiving and generosity are justified by game theory to be successful strategies

    Prisoner's dilemma is a problem commonly featured in game theory. Each player is given an option to be either nice or nasty. Each combination of player plays multiple number of rounds. When tested against different strategies, it is found that the best performing strategies are :

    • nice first ( they don't start the provoking),
    • retaliatory (when opponent is nasty they also resond nasty),
    • forgiving (they don't hold grudges),
    • clear (their strategies are clear for opponent to interpret) and
    • generous (when the opponent has been nasty, they do not retaliate 10℅ of the time )
