Ezután után vedd ez az első nőt aki jobb mint bármelyik akivel a 37% eléréséig összejöttél.  Statisztikailag így van a legjobb esélyed arra, hogy megtaláld a számodra lehetséges legjobb csajt. De ugyanez a szabály alkalmazható pl. házvásarlásra, álláskeresésre is. \r\n\r\nA visszautasítás kicsit bonyolítja a dolgokat de majd kiszámolod, hogy mennyivel csökkenti ez azt a bűvös 37 százalékot.","subreddit_name":"hungary","author":"NapkinFoldingBook"},{"body":"I don't have any links about it but it's a pretty well known thing: the stopping problem.

Should you search for new things you on the chance you will like them, or continue to listen to the things you know you like?\r\n\r\nI do the same thing with Spotify.  I have a large list of \"saved\" music on there that I often come back to and shuffle when I need something familiar.  But every so often I like to branch out and find something new, either with the weekly discover playlists, or by going to a song I like and playing the rest of that artist's songs or switching to radio mode so it will suggest more.  With this method I gradually build up more songs for my list.  Also every so often I remember a song I like and search for it, and then I can explore that artist's other songs.  But the vast majority of the time I want the sure thing, so I go to my saved songs list and hit shuffle.\r\n\r\nBtw, I learned about the multi-armed bandit problem from the book [Algorithms to Live By](https://www.amazon.com/Algorithms-Live-Computer-Science-Decisions/dp/1627790365).","subreddit_name":"Music","author":"tiglionabbit"},{"body":"You guys want to try out [Algorithms to Live By](https://www.amazon.com/Algorithms-Live-Computer-Science-Decisions/dp/1627790365/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=1466119826\u0026amp;sr=8-1\u0026amp;keywords=algorithms+to+live+by)?","subreddit_name":"rational","author":"eaturbrainz"},{"body":"You may want to check out [Algorithms to Live by](https://www.amazon.com/Algorithms-Live-Computer-Science-Decisions/dp/1627790365). \r\n\r\nIt goes into practical examples of complex problems that mathematicians and programmers have solved.
