Les Rendez-vous de PHILOPOP- émission du 15-12- 2024La superstitionC'est une croyance qui interprète des événements comme des signes exprimant une intention surnaturelle, et détermine une conduite appropriée (prières, offrandes, sacrifices, rites) pour infléchir en sa faveur les puissances surnaturelles (qu'il s'agisse d'un Dieu ou des dieux)1- Superstition et hasarda- Pour le superstitieux, la mort tragique d'un homme tué par une tuile qui tombe d'un toit ne résulte pas de la rencontre fortuite de séries de causes indépendantes (définition rationnelle du hasard par Cournot), mais d'une intention surnaturelle (exemple tiré de l'appendice de la 1ère partie de l'Ethique de Spinoza, 1677, et dans L'Essai sur les fondements de la connaissance et sur les caractères de la critique philosophique de Cournot, 1851)b- b- Le hasard, notion dont la source est superstitieuse, témoigne de notre pensée primitive: "Le hasard est le mécanisme se comportant comme s'il avait une intention" (Deux sources de la morale et de la religion, H. Bergson, 1932)2- Les causes de la superstition et l'explication de la formation des interprétations superstitieusesa- La superstition naît de l'incertitude de l'avenir et est engendrée par la crainte (Préface du Traité théologico-politique de Spinoza, 1670). L'exemple d'Alexandre le Grand.b- La formation imaginaire des présages et des prodigesc- Par les prodiges, les hommes imaginent que Dieu (ou les dieux) intervient comme une volonté analogue à la leur (anthropomorphisme), en produisant des événements qui leur sont favorables ou défavorables (anthropocentrisme). D'où le problème pratique de la superstition comment faire pour gagner la faveur divine ?3- Les conséquences intellectuelles, morales et politiques de la superstitiona- Elle entraîne une mentalité obscurantiste qui favorise l'intolérance et fait le lit du despotisme : la haine de la raison et le rejet de toute réflexion critique. Le besoin de certitude et l'intoléranceb- Sous "couleur de religion", la superstition est le moyen le plus efficace d'assurer la domination d'un gouvernement despotique, quand elle est stabilisée et canalisée par l'institution d'un culte4- Superstition et religionEst-elle une perversion de la croyance religieuse ou doit-on identifier toute forme de croyance religieuse à la superstition ?- La croyance est une conviction subjective, l'assentiment à un contenu qu'elle ne peut justifier objectivement. La superstition religieuse est une croyance aux signes de ce contenu (reliques, miracles, rituels etc...) qui prétend s'ériger en savoir (elle est une illusion)- Croire à la révélation, est-ce être superstitieux ? Religions révélées et religion naturelle.Bibliographie:- Appendice de la 1ère partie de l'Ethique et la Préface du Traité théologico-politique de Spinoza- Deux sources de la morale et de la religion de Bergson (chapitre II)- Critique de la raison pure ("De l'opinion, de la science et de la foi"), et La Religion dans les limites de la simple raison (4ème partie, 2ème section) de Kant.- Pour lire et comprendre la Préface du Traité théologico-politique de Spinoza, cette conférence- vidéo de PHILOPOP avec son plan : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhKDrRiKplk

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: All the posts I will never write, published by Self-Embedded Agent on August 14, 2022 on LessWrong. This post has been written for the first Refine blog post day, at the end of the week of readings, dicussions, and exercises about epistomology for doing good conceptual research. (/with courtesy to Adam Shimi who suggested the title and idea. ) Rationality, Probability, Uncertainty, Reasoning Failures of The Aumann Agreement Theorem The famous Aumann Agreement Theorem states that rational reasoners can never agree-to-disagree. In day-to-day life we clearly have many situations where rational reasoners cannot agree-to-disagree. Are people just bad rationalist or are there more fundamental reasons that the Aumann Agreement Theorem can fail. I review all the ways in which the Aumann Agreement Theorem can fail that I know of - including failures based on indexical information, computational-complexity obstacles, divergent-interpretations-of-evidence, Hansonian non-truth-seeking and more. Warren Buffet: The Alpha of Wall Street If we observe a trader that consistenly beat the market that should be evidence against the Efficient Market Hypothesis. A trader could also just have been lucky. How much should we update against the EMH and how much should we expect the trader to beat the market in the future? Can we quantify how much information the market absorbed? This is very reminiscent of Wows Bayesian surprise in Bayesian statistics. The Bid-Ask Spread and Epistemic Uncertainty/ Prediction Markets as Epistemic Fog of War If you know A will resolve you should buy shares on A, if you know not A will happen you should buy shares on not A. If you think A will not resolve you should sell shares on A. The Bid-ask Spread measures bet resolution uncertainty Suppose an adversary has an interest in showing you A and t. There is a -> selective reporting When an earnings call come in.. bid-ask spread increases. Where Forecasting goes Wrong... Forecasting is now a big deal in the rationalist community. I argue that a slavish adherence to Bayesian Orthodoxy leads to missing most of the value of prediction markets. What do we mean when we talk about Probability? Possibility theory is prior to Probability Theory. Probability theory is possibility theory + Cournot's principle. Cournot's principle that an epsilon/zero probability possible event will never happen is the fundamental principle of probability theory. cf Shafer on history of Cournot's principle. But what happens when we observe a epsilon/zero probability event? We obtain a contradiction requiring belief revision. Wow!1! I made a productive mistake An exposition of 'Bayesian Surprise attract Human Attention', focused on the notion of 'Bayesian surprisal' measured in wows. There has been a ton of interest in Predictive Processing and Friston's Free Energy Principle. The discussion is often hampered by equivocation between different quantitites that are the log of something. This post will try to clearly disambiguate between these notions and give both mathematical and intuitive explanations.

We apply the notion of Nash Equilibrium, first, to some more coordination games; in particular, the Battle of the Sexes. Then we analyze the classic Cournot model of imperfect competition between firms. We consider the difficulties in colluding in such settings, and we discuss the welfare consequences of the Cournot equilibrium as compared to monopoly and perfect competition.

In this study we analyze how markets work in the Information Society. In particular we concentrate on three important markets: the software market, the broadcasting market and "technology markets" where intellectual property rights can be traded. All these markets are characterized by modes of competition that are rather unorthodox and beyond simple Cournot or Bertrand models. Therefore, extended models are needed to gain insights about competition in the Information Society.
