I have another trick. If you don’t know what you want or you want a good and fast answer. Ask someone that have a good knowledge to pick for you.
For instance ask the waiter if he tried the items on the menu and pick the one he likes the best. (And if he didn’t tried most of them because he is new which one is the most popular). If it’s tech go to your best guy about the topic and ask him what you should pick.
It works well if you are good at choosing the right person. And for most not that important things since the person already have more information than you it will be better than flipping a coin.
