i love it! it makes me realize on how i can be convinced without being convinced, and helps me figure out some loose parts in my logic. therefore i decided today, i will write a review only at the second lecture. -- among the things that make it entertaining, are the various exercises used to make various points. now that i am aware of possible tricks i fall in the traps less easy :)

'Why call them System 1 and System 2 rather than the more descriptive "automatic system" and "effortful system"? The reason is simple: "Automatic system" takes longer to say and therefore takes more space in your working memory. This matters, because anything that occupies your workingmemory reduces your ability to think.' --> it struk me, the similarity with artificial memory!
