Suppose we take the #predictor to be a machine that arrives at its prediction by simulating the brain of the chooser when confronted with the problem of which box to choose.
Bypassing the branch predictor

The ITTAGE indirect branch predictor

Modern CPUs are actually pretty good at predicting the indirect branch inside an interpreter loop, _contra_ the conventional wisdom. We take a deep dive into the ITTAGE indirect branch prediction algorithm, which is capable of making those predictions, and draw some connections to some other interests of mine in the areas of fuzzing and reinforcement learning.

Spot-testing allowed Houston to see just an 8.4% COVID death rate at long-term care facilities, vs. national average of 23.4%. Wow, good for them.
