gollark: <@356107472269869058> YOUR response to Newcomb's paradox? Also baidicoot.
gollark: On the large scale online tests I've seen it was split about 50/50; weird that we lean so one box.
gollark: Fun!

gollark: Except we don't need prediction now, you could just data mine the response to this off discord in theory.
