By hypothesis, Omega on examining your code at 6:59, knows that you will self-modify at 7:00 and one-box thereafter.
Consider that every TDT agent must be derived from a non-TDT agent. There is no difference in principle between "I used to adhere to CDT but self-modified to TDT" and "I didn't understand TDT when I was a child, but I follow it now as an adult".
Correction made, thanks to Tim Tyler.
By what hypothesis? That is not how the proposed Disposition-Based Decision Theory says it works. It claims to result in agents who have the disposition to one-box.
Sure. This sub thread was about plain CDT, and how it self-modifies into some form of DBDT/TDT once it figures out the benefits of doing so -- and given the hypothesis of an omniscient Omega, then Omega will know that this will occur.
In that case, what I think you meant to say was:
Doh! Thanks for the correction, editing comment.
