I’m looking for a comment from /u/wei_dai; it had something to do along the lines of deciding what to work on (or do, or study) week by week, and then updating/changing after the week (maybe in a post about UDT?) Does someone know what I’m talking about? Search function, wei_dai posts and google has turned up nothing. Thanks for anyone’s help!
Comments like this one and this one come to mind, but I have no idea if those are what you’re thinking of. If you could say more about what you mean by “updating/changing after the week”, what the point he was trying to make was, and more of the context (e.g. was it about academia? or an abstract decision in some problem in decision theory?), then I might be able to locate it.
It was concise and technical (Like, let X be the set of decisions you could make… and the conclusion was why it does make sense to decide things on a week by week basis) and I think it was just a comment here on this website, but I am not sure. Anyways, don’t waste time looking, I just searched a bit more and I could not find it; I will, most likely, message him after the holidays.

I don’t recall writing such a comment.

First, thank you so much for helping me. No, those are not the comments I had in mind.
It was more something like the texts he has up on his web-page: http://www.weidai.com/stock-options.txt
