I really doubt that. Changing a legal contract is not something you do without approval. That sounds like a quick way to end up unemployed.
Just curious - why am I suddenly seeing so many people referencing occam's razor? It is happening way too frequently to be a coincidence. Was the idea featured someplace recently? It seems like just about every tech-ish thread on reddit and HN has one "Occam's Razor" dude for the last couple weeks.
Yeah, that would be true if I hadn't already heard of it I guess. I've also seen a lot of people talking about baader-meinhof, so I suspect it might just be that pop psychology is the tech bro humblebrag du joir this week.
It can still be the case despite knowing it. Simply being aware of the existence of a bias isn't enough to counter it in a lot of cases.
