  5. Kind of insane how Rationalist Brain and the postrational reaction to it clash in your head having opinions --> radical epistemic doubt --> having opinions but recognizing their sources, consciously naming them like some self-transparent robot --> then it gets tiresome and lame

  6. if you're caught in an argument, say one of two things: "assumptions are irrational and demonstrate a poverty of probabilistic thinking" or "humans are evolutionarily primed with an intuition of tail risk, and this is actually rational" this should cover you 100% of the time

    1/ Did you know that Vannevar Bush (you know, the guy who helped enable everything from radar to the manhattan project, the NSF to memexes) wrote an autobiography? Turns out that yes he did, it's been out of print since the 70's, and it's *excellent* BOOK REPORT THREAD

    Behind this word salad, such claims on the universal are revealed to be nakedly particular. create no narrative of your own, & in spite of your pretensions to "global modernism(s)", you will be subsumed by the voguish narrowness of the current Discourse:
