Michael Nielsen (@michael_nielsen), research fellow at Y Combinator Research, joins Erik for a wide-ranging discussion about a variety of topics, including:
* Why the top names in the S&P 500 change over time, but the top names in global university rankings don’t — and how to fix that.
* How Michael thinks about the role of risk in science, and why he'd like to see more risk-taking.
* Memory, including how to improve yours and why professional athletes seem to have such good ones.
* The “compliment deficit” in the world and how to fix it.
* The silver lining of the Bay Area housing problem.
* The reproducibility problem in social science.
* Why he’s a fan of chaos.
…and much more.
