liking and living, collaboratively

There are three main reasons why I loved Clive Thompson's piece in the Sunday NY Times Magazine.

1. It questions fundamental differences in how we can define people and predict future behavior: self-reports and preferences vs. behavior.
   
   
2. It highlights the paradox of how social seemingly individualistic things are: The social nature of decision-making; not to mention, the very collaborative style of the Netflix' competition.
   
   
3. It touches on the limitations of computers in understanding nuanced human decision-making.

My favorite things!
