RE: In-Groups Versus Out-Groups: Why Our Culture is so Fear-Based (Article)
I liked your mention of heuristics. A fascinating area in social psychology and a big reason for not being too quick to judge given our (seemingly) in built tendency to short cut perception and decision making.
Heuristic logic is something I've sunk a significant amount of time into. As a juggler, I'm running primarily on intuition, and it's interesting to see how I "know" how to move my arms, even when working with new patterns. I can visualize a lot of the algorithms that piece together my subjective reality. It's amazing how efficient the brain is at piecing together accurate conclusions from only a little information.
