    This isn't a subtweet or anything. I just wish I had compiled a list of my biggest mistakes over time, because I'm sure my ego erases things with stunning efficiency.https://twitter.com/generativist/status/1196950315674697729 …

    Admitting mistakes is useful because error correction is a lot more robust than error prevention in lots of domains, especially complex ones -- unknown unknowns and all that. But it's costly to the individual because there's always an asshole ready to proclaim, "I knew better!"

        Some I can piece together from things I've written. For example, I think I've been so vocally angry at conservatives because I used to be one (libertarian) and 2016 was me suddenly finding out that a lot of my beliefs as to their principles were laughably naive and self-serving.

        Others I can piece together from transaction logs. Senior year of college, I was day trading with money I made from spam. Throughout the year I remember thinking how many brilliant trades I made. But even ignoring transactions, I was in the read so,,,

        But, most just keep receding from memory and emotional accessibility. And given how affective processing works, I don't think I can even correctly access not-so-distant me accurately. Unless your absurdly meticulous, yester-you is gone.

        The mind forgetting is key to dealing with lots of things, right? “Ah, was X really so bad?” (It was, but we’ve scrubbed down the trauma so you can get on with your life.)

        Yea, you can function without it. But it also means you may fail to learn from some mistakes because you miss the lesson before it's gone.
