recursive.eco · models behind the books
Runnable models, with their failures logged next to their results. Move the sliders until the thesis fails.
Buyers and sellers bid at random — no learning, no strategy — and the price finds equilibrium anyway. Remove one constraint and it fails. A replication of Gode & Sunder (1993).
validated · gate passesFour parts of us — hoarder, overflower, duty-giver, withdrawn — on a shared commons, with two goods and three measures allowed to disagree. Three calibration failures logged on the page.
not converged · read the failuresGottman and Murray's marriage equations, drawn — two null-clines, their steady states, and the watershed between them. Then four hundred couples at once, where 94% looking back becomes 29% looking forward. Set every couple identical and the gap is still there.
runs · psychoeducational, not clinicalA model that cannot lose proves nothing. A model tuned until it agrees with the book is worth less than no model.
