It's not explicitly stated, but it can be inferred because somebody is making the offer and they're presumably making the offer for their own benefit, too. Okay maybe you're denying Detective Cole Phelps his promotion to Homicide. The LAPD will continue on though.

If you change the numbers around then it's not prisoner's dilemma anymore. For example the Dark Knight situation is not a prisoner's dilemma, since double cooperation was the best option for everyone involved. Double cooperation needs to be worse than single betrayal for it to be the real dilemma. In theory it does apply because The Joker was going to kill them all himself once time expired and Betray was the only means to survive. The bigger reasons it doesn't apply are:

kevwaffles 08/15/23 1:59:38 PM #89 | Leonhart4 posted...
This is true if you think there's no scenario in which nobody picks Betray because as long as one person does, the system survives. That scenario explicitly does not exist within the base concept of prisoner's dilemma, nor does the example here provide any reason to believe it applies. Adding other variables to it changes the whole discussion. --- "One toot on this whistle will take you to a far away land." -Toad, SMB3 |

What people think is the optimal strategy is the actual point of the prisoner's dilemma.The most unrealistic part is that you'd have the hard numbers to know that Betray was the most optimal choice, and that's the biggest reason it doesn't translate to real life. --- "One toot on this whistle will take you to a far away land." -Toad, SMB3 |

kevwaffles 08/15/23 1:24:45 PM #82 | Leonhart4 posted...
Nah, the system gets what they want when someone picks Betray, too. They're willing to make a compromise to achieve their goal, and the only way they don't achieve it is if nobody betrays anyone. When you start framing it in these terms you can't ignore that "the system" is far too massive to be significantly affected by the choice. Edit: If telling them to shove it is more important to you than the consequences, that's a different thing entirely. --- "One toot on this whistle will take you to a far away land." -Toad, SMB3 |

kevwaffles 08/15/23 1:13:38 PM #77 | Leonhart4 posted...
The prisoner's dilemma is the system expecting at least one person to act in self-interest and pick Betray. The only way to beat the system is for everyone to pick Ally.No, basic prisoner's dilemma means choosing Betray always gives you the best possible outcome in a single choice situation. You're getting into VLR territory that expands past a single choice. --- "One toot on this whistle will take you to a far away land." -Toad, SMB3 |

kevwaffles 08/15/23 12:44:30 PM #66 | At it's most magnanimous interpretation, you're pointlessly risking your life to save other people who pointlessly risked their lives by voting blue. That's not something most of you would do in any other situation and for good reason.

Anyways, it makes sense that file sizes keep increasing. SNES games were 8x as big as NES games, PS1 games were 100x as big as SNES games, PS2 5x as big as PS1, PS3 5x as big as PS2, PS4 5x as big as PS3. No surprise PS5 is over twice as big as PS4.Actually for most games that have both PS4 and PS5 versions the PS5 version is the slightly smaller one. --- "One toot on this whistle will take you to a far away land." -Toad, SMB3 |

Biden is not a strong incumbant, but he wasn't a strong candidate in 2020 and still won. I'd never say anything so presumptuous like "Dems have it in the bag," but I do consider Biden a big favorite as long as his health doesn't take a turn for the worse. I can't say I'm super tuned in to those crowds but the whole thing seems to be, in a word, quieter than I ever expected. Far from silent, sure.
