NEW PAPER!

Alice knows both X and Y and wants to reveal X to Bob only if he knows Y. If Bob doesn’t know Y, she wants her signal to reveal nothing about X.

When can Alice accomplish this?

Exactly when the matrix of conditional probabilities with entries P( y_j | x_i ) is column-substochastic.

Capisco.

Tuttavia, l’articolo è un “Flash”: formato di articolo che si limita solitamente a descrivere un fatto accaduto, senza troppo altro.

In questo caso ho apprezzato non mi venisse detto cosa pensare del comportamento di Musk. Il video è abbastanza per farsi un idea dei fatti.

Condivido con @ilpost.it la scelta di lasciare al lettore trarre le proprie conclusioni.

Spiace sempre molto che il discorso pubblico sia così polarizzato. Pare non ci sia spazio nemmeno per la discussione. A volte dimentico che l’ideologia non proviene solo da destra.

A screenshot of a New York Times update that says: In Grand Central Terminal, Leon Chang, 26, of Brooklyn, said he had not heard of congestion pricing and asked what it was. When explained it was a toll for cars entering Manhattan, he then asked “What do you mean? What is a car?” Walking outside, we showed him a vehicle parked on the street. He gently touched the hood of the car. “You wish to forbid these majestic beasts from entering the city,” he said in a wistful tone. “It is a folly of man. The desire to tame the world around us.”

I wrote an intro to the literature on simple mechanisms. Out now in the JEP.

It’s a short (14-page) plain-language summary, designed to get students to the research frontier. 📈📉
