This thread is why econtwitter is back.
Much of what we colloquially call “beliefs” are closer to preferences than to Bayesian beliefs
Aumann's agreement theorem says that two Bayesians who share a common prior and have common knowledge of each other's posteriors must share the same posterior --- i.e. they cannot "agree to disagree". But people disagree all the time. What is your favorite hypothesis about how come?
