Personnel
gollark: This is very incoherent. And yes, it's often hard to analyze complex scenarios, but that does *not* mean that the correct answer is "disavow the entire concept of analyzing things".
gollark: The Chinese remainder theorem?
gollark: Immediately undergo exponentiation modulo 7, then.
gollark: I do not understand that sentence ("The alternative is work a political method for political reason.") and it is not pizza, I have had no commercial relations with pizza companies, I am not paid to subliminally advertise pizza, etc.
gollark: I guess maybe in politics/economics/sociology the alternative is something like "lean on human intuition" or "make the correct behaviour magically resolve from self-interest". Not sure how well those actually work.
