Cip V on Thinking in Bets

You only briefly touch on control which is a key variable in our relationship with uncertainty. And accepting what we cannot control some things and letting go of that illusion avoids a lot of heartache. This is different than "you cannot know" which you talk about at length in your discussion. My point is about things that can theoretically happen but over which you have no control. Like say whether a lump will appear on your neck tomorrow. That's uncontrollable uncertainty. Different vs whether you should have meal X and Y which is controllable. The latter is also an inconsequential choice so fretting over it makes limited sense but the point is that it is controllable.
