writing projects

I spent a bit of research time on the weekend on writing projects. In one, I am writing about the algorithmic observing strategies that involve sensible objectives, adaptation to what's known previously, look-ahead to the future, and a discount rate. The idea is that observing decisions should be made algorithmically but also just-in-time. And perhaps simply and interpretably, which is even harder.

In another writing project—which is perhaps not reslly research by my strict rules—I am trying to set down my thoughts about the moderation of the submissions to arXiv. Why? Because this blew up this week and I didn't agree with a lot of the things that people were saying, on all sides. Of course if I really write something good, will the arXiv accept it? I think it will get rejected by moderation!
