    "writing academic papers is not that exciting" - one way to make it more interesting, just make up a bullshit hypothesis, then create the data out of thin air and wait to see how long it takes for someone to catch you - about 14 years of hide and seek seems a good return on investment.

      Yikes. From wikipedia - he was active in Hanoar Haoved Vehalomed, an Israeli youth movement. While he was preparing a ktovet esh (fire inscription) for a traditional nighttime ceremony, the flammable materials he was mixing exploded, causing third-degree burns over 70 percent of his body.[12] In his writings, Ariely describes how that experience led to his research on "how to better deliver painful and unavoidable treatments to patients."

      I vaguely recall Sam Harris mentioning on one of his podcasts that he asked a famous researcher on the science of decision-making how that researcher's own research has influenced his own decision making, and the researcher said something along the lines of "Oh, it hasn't", because his research shows that the smarter one is, the better one is at coming up with reasonable justifications for their own decisions.

    @JoeCharogoff 12 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    That's great, now how do we do that?
    He didn't have much time but I hope he addressed it in his book.
    He is talking about our subconscious, and the way to make better decisions is by thinking about what is around us. We are led to make so many choices because we are afraid, as he touched on.
    If we aren't consciously considering something, than our subconscious will always make the decision for us. That decision will always be what 'seems' most comforting, even ignoring it.

    I do not share this specific misgiving, but I empathize. I recommend that you watch "David Pizarro: The strange politics of disgust" and brainstorm ways of getting over your aversion to his appearance, because what he says is truly remarkable.

      So your saying you did not freely choose to write that comment? Just because w can be careless and easily manipulated in our decisions doesn't mean we aren't thinking agents. Just means we've gotten lazy

      UseYour Mind We don’t make our decisions, our brain makes our decisions for us and we don’t control our brain, it just reacts to stimuli.

      @@AndreEstrada12345 that describes an animal. We are much more than that. We can be impulsive, yes- but the fact that we are even bandying about these ideas overwhelms any idea of us being mere computers. Shear logic wod say that the writing of a Shakespeare play, for another example, cannot be reacting to stimuli. That would be nonsense

    For those of you who don't know: This guy is a grifter who fabricated all of the data in all of the papers he has published (including his books), was ostracized by his own colleagues for being a sleazebag, then was caught lying about it and then went into hiding.
