听NPR的采访知道的这本书,印象是如何用算法帮助你找对象和收拾家。真读了以后感觉那些生活小窍门都是表层,这书的本质是用CS的角度去思考,从解决计算问题延伸到哲学。感触最深的是贝叶斯那章,人们都对prior有很好的直觉,但是这个直觉不停的在被追求吸引眼球的新闻扭曲。尤其现在这个一开电脑一摸手机,简直是一个人一个泡泡的世界里,protect your prior太艰辛了

评分"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",确实如此,希望我本科时就读过 (不过16年才出来呀...)
评分适合文科生,无编程基础的人看。作者花了很大的精力请了一些算法如何在普通人生活中应用,对我有很多启发。

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.
终于读完了,有些失望。 开始的时候还挺有趣的,摆了一个应用题,让你考虑。有一些有趣的计算机方面的问题与算法。但是算法是无穷无尽的,作者们似乎一直在掉书袋,给了引文参考,一些历史的注记,但是导致书的脉络支离破碎。想象一下,这本书的难度比维基百科还低,但是想要覆...
评分 评分1.从37%法则说起 苏格拉底带领几个弟子来到一块麦地边。他对弟子们说:“你们去麦地里摘一个最大的麦穗,只许前行不能回头,我在麦地的尽头等你们。” 《最大的麦穗》其实就是数学界的“最优停止问题”,要取得最理想的结果,显然需要在两者之间找到最合适的平衡点,在甄选时既...
