Thanks for posting this! I opened RIF this morning to see what would happen and I was surprised to see that it seems to still work (I didn’t try logging in). I hope it’s what you described and not some kind of mistake that’s going to cost RIF millions of dollars!

Thanks for sharing the word “satisficing”! I’ve never heard it before and it’s really nice to have a word for that concept.

I definitely fall into the maximizer category and that causes some of my purchase paralysis. For many types of item, I’ve started just buying the wirecutter recommendation and trusting it to be good enough. Clothing and furniture feel more personal and less generic, so the wirecutter strategy hasn’t applied, but I will have to try to find a way to satisfice with those purchases too.
