A fascinating exploration of how insights from computer algorithms can be applied to our everyday lives, helping to solve common decision-making problems and illuminate the workings of the human mind

All our lives are constrained by limited space and time, limits that give rise to a particular set of problems. What should we do, or leave undone, in a day or a lifetime? How much messiness should we accept? What balance of new activities and familiar favorites is the most fulfilling? These may seem like uniquely human quandaries, but they are not: computers, too, face the same constraints, so computer scientists have been grappling with their version of such issues for decades. And the solutions they've found have much to teach us.

In a dazzlingly interdisciplinary work, acclaimed author Brian Christian and cognitive scientist Tom Griffiths show how the algorithms used by computers can also untangle very human questions. They explain how to have better hunches and when to leave things to chance, how to deal with overwhelming choices and how best to connect with others. From finding a spouse to finding a parking spot, from organizing one's inbox to understanding the workings of memory, Algorithms to Live By transforms the wisdom of computer science into strategies for human living.

##其實到不瞭 live by 的程度,但是我仍然覺得這本書用對瞭倍鏡。它離生活智慧和書本算法都足夠遠,站在瞭中間點。你當然不能得到什麼中彩票的秘訣,也沒看到常青藤級彆的計算機課程。雖然目錄看上去越來越像教科書,但讀者能得到的是一種生活觀:生活並不凡庸,尋常瑣事皆有解。“But this doesn’t mean that bad equilibria can’t be fixed. It just means that the solution is going to have to come from somewhere else.” 在坐地抱怨哭鬧前,先持續得找解方案,一直找下去也比就此認定一切都是雞毛和傻逼然後走上如何精緻得撒謊撕逼再裝作毫不在乎強。

##很久以前就知道這本書瞭,不過看著"算法"兩字實在沒興趣。直到某天翻Google Talks, 發現作者的講座很受歡迎,看瞭看纔發現確實很有意思 放在國內的語境下,這本書叫"心智模型",或model thinker可能好一點 介紹裏寫 "A fascinating exploration of how insights from computer ...
