BATB score: 4/10


This book is way smarter than my brain-grade. #BillGatesReco #GatesNotes 🧐


I am like an aspiring junior highschool A-class sweetheart vs a suited-up PhD who spent his whole life understanding the complexity of p-values doubting his meaning of life (at times) but yet 8 years too late for any career shift. #yepyou


Laffer curve, utils - law of diminishing returns, Bayesian inference, Condorcet paradox, xxx, yyy, zzz.


Best for: number lovers who get a sensual kick from formulas, parabola, probabilistic %


Best as: a sensual brain teaser for number lovers


Best to: skip this book. But when we meet Bill Gates, we’ll say we loved it! 🤪


BATB Score: 4/10 for 4.00 GPA brain-grade required to read this book
