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.
##有幸參與到吳曉波書友會打卡讀書的團隊中和小夥伴們一起讀書,曆時17天終於完完整整的讀完《算法之美》這本很贊的書,沒有間斷,大部分是利用在往返北京的城際和地鐵上的時間,感覺很好:開捲有益為一好,利用時間為二好,習慣堅持為三好! 《算法之美》這本書顛覆瞭我對很多算...
評分 評分 評分 評分 評分##《指導生活的算法》 生活中的很多復雜決策,看上去沒有規律可循,實際上是可以用算法來解決的。e.g.找對象用到的37%法則 很多時候我們會沉迷在細節裏,看不清大方嚮,其實是犯瞭數學上的過度擬閤錯誤。 時間問題本質上是個數學問題,用數學傢的辦法管理時間,纔能活得更有效率。
評分##很久以前就知道這本書瞭,不過看著"算法"兩字實在沒興趣。直到某天翻Google Talks, 發現作者的講座很受歡迎,看瞭看纔發現確實很有意思 放在國內的語境下,這本書叫"心智模型",或model thinker可能好一點 介紹裏寫 "A fascinating exploration of how insights from computer ...
