Hawks vs Schneier

John Hawks har lite synpunkter på kontexten till Bruce Schneiers tal om beta brain:

Schneier emphasizes our inaccurate assessments of small risks, proposing that we did much better in our "natural" habitat. I'm not so sure about that -- remember, I'm running a slow-moving series on risk. There's no particular reason to think that our assessments of ancient risks should have been accurate, since accurate risk assessment is not the same as fitness-maximizing risk assessment.
