Game theory
Uses of game theory in modeling and analyzing the real world.
I started a new blog
In a hurry to write about the Russia-Ukraine War, I started a new blog using Substack technology, rather than trying to quickly update the mobile and email UIs on the blogs I already have. It’s called Implicit Games, and generally is meant to cover the application of game theoretic thinking to real life.

How to arm Ukraine without starting World War 3
When it comes to fears of catastrophic escalation or stumbling into World War 3, I claim:
-
The West can safely supply more powerful military equipment to Ukraine …
-
… if and only if they are careful about how they publicly message the donations.
Primary targets for such messaging are Russians other than Vladimir Putin, for Putin can’t start a nuclear war unless other Russians are willing to help.
