[Q&A with Gerd Gigerenzer.](https://t.co/ondErl9Cox?ref=ivarhagendoorn.com) "We humans are not as dim-witted as the heuristics-and-biases research makes us appear." I couldn't agree more. There may be good reasons for the cognitive biases reported in psychological experiments, which are usually based on a few dozen participants (or less) who usually happen to be university students at institutions in the US, the UK or some other Western European country.

I never thought I'd ever say this, but [this interview](https://t.co/DJoiu5DQ0Q?ref=ivarhagendoorn.com) with the American art critic and historian Hal Foster is actually quite interesting.
