What I Learned Today

This post is entitled "What I Learned Today." If the teacher has had a total of 8 hours of sleep over a 2-day period, then he should not attempt to teach himself about "finite repeated games" and "infinite repeated games" with unique and multiple Nash equlibria starting at 8:30am on the morning of his 11:00am lecture. One, even if it's possible to learn the material quickly enough to teach it that day, he will be too tired to focus, even if he is working at a coffeeshop and drinking coffee by the pot. And two, even if he were well-rested, he'd probably still not be able to do it. I have no idea what I just talked to them about.
