When humans assert inconsistent views across time, 90% of the time they’re being dishonest, 10% of the time they’re sincerely updating their beliefs
When nature gives you inconsistent results over time for an empirical probe, 100% of the time you are missing something

One of the easiest ways to go wrong is to apply human inconsistency defenses against nature. If you can’t deal with nature drip-feeding you noisy truths, you can’t learn at all

I think that more often than not, the expression of inconsistent views is due to the person not being whole. They actually believe contradictory things, because their whole self is rarely if ever present to examine those things at the same time.

I think my own question would be: what happened to all the objects I’ve mysteriously lost or had stolen in my life?
Or something like that. Something self-centered that I could actually understand the answer to.
