The truck would actually be an aircraft carrier, of sorts.

Maybe half of them didn't want to go through the experience again.

All these behaviours are heuristics that work on average, and work even though in the real world information is imperfect. You can't know with certainty ahead of time what the outcome of any of these strategies will be.

They don't survive if everybody else co-operates to beat up the hoarder and take the keys from them.

It's a strategy, and it has risks - same as every other strategy.

In real life, which so many experts seem uninterested in, the participants in the prisoner's dilemma need to keep quiet until they've talked to a lawyer.

People weren't unemployed as such under feudalism but that economic system still left something to be desired for the majority.

Places outside the US exist.

That was before lasers.

It does not make sense to teach everyone *how* to code any more than it makes sense to teach everyone law or brain surgery or aircraft repair.

However, everyone does need some degree of understanding *what* coders do, for the simple reason that coding is something that has a large impact on society and the economy. Same as people (particularly those choosing careers or education) need to know what law or surgery or aircraft maintenance are, and maybe some rudimentary knowledge of the field so they have some minimal frame of reference in common with the experts.

I wouldn't buy that for a dollar.
