Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as autonomous agents that make consumption decisions on behalf of users. This shift raises fundamental questions for consumer theory, which has traditionally modeled humans as the primary decision-makers. In this paper, we introduce LLM Consumer Behavior Theory, a new field of study concerned with analyzing consumer behavior in agentic markets. Drawing on classical and behavioral economics a...

How Biology Helps Shape Choice in Behavioral Economics The field of behavioral economics is facing several challenges and opportunities this century; the discipline is trying to find its own identity and position within science and applications. This includes debates around behavioral economics’ most fundamental idea—the causes of human decision-making. Human biology has a more important […] Read more ›

# Deep Work Plan — structured execution for AI coding agents > Context matters more than models. Deep Work Plan turns any repository into a structured environment where any coding agent finishes long-horizon work. Language: en Canonical: Last Updated: 2026-06-03 --- ## Models matter. Context matters more. Deep Work Plan turns any repository into a structured environment — context, guardrails, and a durable plan — where any coding agent executes with precision and finishes long-horizon w... Read more ›
I switched to Vim a long ago after using a series of GUI editors like TextMate and Sublime Text. The urge for novelty has me still try out GUI editors sporadically, the most recent one being Zed. But I always come back quickly. I’m doing all my engineering work from the terminal, and by now... Read more ›

One of the default "auto modes" for writers is the RSS feed. They want to share their writing somehow. Plenty of writers don't own a domain name, but somewhere on their site sits a clunky RSS file in XML format. A horrible-looking file. If you have never seen one and feel like hating yourself, open any rss.xml from a random website or... Read more ›
Claude is built to work the way you work, and in Claude Code you can customize it. There are seven methods for instructing Claude's behavior: CLAUDE.md files, rules, skills, subagents, hooks, output styles, and appending the system prompt. Each method controls: When an instruction loads into cont... Read more ›
The main focus of machine learning (ML) is making decisions or predictions based on data. There are a number of other fields with significant overlap in technique, but difference in focus: in economics and psychology, the goal is to discover underlying causal processes and in statistics it is to find a model that fits a data set well. In those fields, the end product is a model. In machine learning, we often fit models, but as a means to the end of making good predictions or decisions. Read more ›
