What does one do with a neighbor who loves their bindweed?

@nprofile1q... yeah, our price for private health insurance decreased by 10x here, with no copays. It’s wild.

Over-optimized A/B tests remind me of The Pepsi Challenge and the bias we have in the moment toward things we might not ultimately like better.
Pepsi likely outperformed Coke because a single small sip creates a bias towards the sweeter option, Pepsi.

Now I’m wondering how self-driving would change this or not.
@nprofile1q..., honestly, I trust Waymos far more than the average driver here. As I’m cycling down the street, I feel way safer with a driverless car behind me than the average Uber. It’s not that Waymos are great; it’s that human drivers are so incredibly bad.
