One of my longest standing mint mysteries is how I alone was A/B tested into them trying to bum pizza off me: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CSg_ZxLU8AAF96d?format=png&name=...

I haven't been able to find any other confirmation that this was a thing outside the one time I saw it.

One of the best talks I've ever seen was Aaron Swartz talking about how Victory Kit used multi-armed bandits to optimize political action: https://github.com/victorykit/whiplash
