具体描述
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.
用户评价
##上当了，骗子东抄西凑攒的垃圾，怀疑丫用搜索引擎写的，看作者努力过，两星够了。
评分##适合文科生，无编程基础的人看。作者花了很大的精力请了一些算法如何在普通人生活中应用，对我有很多启发。

评分##《指导生活的算法》 生活中的很多复杂决策，看上去没有规律可循，实际上是可以用算法来解决的。e.g.找对象用到的37%法则 很多时候我们会沉迷在细节里，看不清大方向，其实是犯了数学上的过度拟合错误。 时间问题本质上是个数学问题，用数学家的办法管理时间，才能活得更有效率。
评分##某章提到了已经被debunk的marshmellow experiment，瞬间掉分。
评分##指导生活的算法。恋爱的年龄与犹豫比例决策。时间保守与开放的选择。
评分##白话版的计算机算法课程
评分##数学家教做人
