Just found @dries's 2019 blog post looking at the Prisoner's Dilemma as a way to describe Open Source sustainability,

Anyone here know of other/more recent resources that dive a little further into this topic?

#DavidAsch is right: "Colleges Face a Prisoner’s Dilemma. If we don’t band together, we’ll all get skewered alone."

"What is surprising is that these #universities, all facing the same challenges, and forewarned of them, are largely facing them alone. The absence of a meaningfully coordinated defense might have been predicted from the “prisoner’s dilemma,” a classic game-theory framework that reveals why rational actors often fail to cooperate against a common enemy — even when doing so would benefit them."
PS: Law firms too. Nonprofits too.

There’s a Reason Even ‘Smart’ People Surrender to Trump
"I think we’re all in a prisoner’s dilemma. Unless we start acting collectively — and by “we,” I mean the most expansive we possible — of us who don’t want to live in Trump’s autocracy, then we’re just going to have to be making life worse for one another with every concession." ~ Masha Gessen
Should countries prioritize short-term gains or long-term stability? Let’s discuss! 👇

I recently read a paper by Kleshnina and others and used it to teach myself some evolutionary game theory techniques.
This is a little obscure, so I'll thread below about why this topic matters for humans and the environment 🧵

I recently read a paper by Kleshnina et al. (2023), The effect of environmental information on evolution of cooperation in stochastic games, which provided an opportunity to teach myself about how to analyse iterated games. In particular, the problem they investigated admits 64 possible scenarios with 256 possible strategies each, and I was interested in writing code that could automate the analysis. The solution I eventually landed on (Github repo) used a combination of SymPy, NetworkX, SageMath, the Z3 Theorem Prover, and PyEDA for Boolean minimisation, but I think my approach could be improved.
@NJWookie despite the wealth gap (which I’d argue is more a function of #libertarian ideas,) I’d counter that businesses can be efficient: as good as #capitalism’s #racetothebottom is for consumers, it is hard on businesses. Government doesn’t have such incentives
The place of government is to do what businesses can’t and what may go against human nature (I.e. #PrisonersDilemma): armed forces, build roads, basic science, regulate/incentivize for the future (I.e. clean energy)

And this is why #Biden cannot do what we KNOW #Trump will absolutely do, should Trump win re-election.
