Sheep are rational agents when they are surrounded by wolves.

Having driven in country roads with lots of sheep around, their behaviour doesn't seem rational. Run in front of the car right as you are about to pass them.

Read about hares the other day on HN: they are trying to make the fast moving heavy predator loose momentum by crossing its path.

Best way to predict the future, is to make it happen.

One can drop the metaphors and meet the human beings instead.

Being a wolf is preferable nonetheless.

Depends if there are unguarded sheeps nearby, wolves are in extinction in some places, sheeps are not.

[Supermancho]

what does that have to do with the topic (or this thread)?

[gambiting]

wolves are actively hunted by far more dangerous predators though, especially if they are killing sheep.

[Supermancho]

not in corporate america. i think you missed the metaphor. you arent alone.

[blaser-waffle]

Absolutely in corporate america. M&A's, regulators, other employees looking to slide into your role, etc. etc.

[Supermancho]

Absolutely not, as per your demonstrative examples. You are confused and, I predict, will now want to quibble about what "genuine" means since youve lost context in the digression. SMH
