I agree that it's a lot to cover, but I wanted to work a full example. We talk a lot on LW about decision analysis and paradoxes in the abstract, but I'm coming from a math/physics background, and it's much more helpful for me to see concrete examples. I assume some other people feel the same way.
Self-referential problems would be an interesting area to study, but I'm not familiar with the techniques. I suspect you're right, though.
