What do you do in Newcomb's problem if Omega has a 45% chance of mispredicting you?
Algebra.
I'd start calling myself Omega Prime and making the reverse prediction to just say I'm smarter than Omega.
You'd then have a 55% chance of mispredicting (slightly worse than chance, where the 45% Omega is slightly better than chance).
Looks like I'd first have to start reading what people write correctly!
