      This is the best essay I've read so far this year. It feels like it gives you a new mental model that will shine a new light on some of the most polarizing and loaded issues. Cannot recommend enough. https://everythingstudies.com/2018/04/26/a-deep-dive-into-the-harris-klein-controversy/ …

      transparadigmatic dissonance – the dissonance between paradigms. Is something a big deal, or is it not? It's not an inherent property of the issue! mostly-political vs mostly-scientificpic.twitter.com/8gCDK8vDdP

      Apparently most people aren't even capable of making sense of "by X I don't mean Y" as an idea, which... is... an accurate description of my experience arguing with thousands of fools over 20+ years ... the public needs to be taught basic logic in order to be a better publicpic.twitter.com/yBsEoqWfCG

      in a way this might also be frame-able as inductive vs deductive is it ok to try and make sense of something in isolation? is it ok to insist on reading into ambiguous implications and associations?pic.twitter.com/pbrYpfRh8J

      Just saw this on my timeline and in light of this it’s interesting to examine Either people don’t know how to read and assume this is a fight of some kind Or they believe Biden doesn’t means what he says, and therefore assume this is a fighthttps://twitter.com/visakanv/status/1139432909587144704?s=21 …

      Joe Biden, who has a problem with the tax code, was a US Senator, which writes and then votes on the tax code, for 36 years.

          If you were a senator for 36 years do you believe there would come a day when you had no problem with the tax code?

          The relevant question is “After 36 years would I develop selective amnesia about an fact pattern that the code specifically anticipates and which occurs to 1+ Fortune 500 companies every year?”
