Vic Berger style editing meets recordings of academic conferences. I never would have imagined this. Great job. The hand gesture zoom-ins are hilarious

Pinker is more like a moth than a bee.

I thought about stealing his book and marking up all the logical fallacies in the margins as a debate labeling exercise but decided marking up one big simp to corporate managers was a waste of my time even if there may be some partial truths buried in there Ala life of Brian: the romans.

You were determined to use your new editing software as much as possible on this clip huh?

[@niclasromanski7920]

Can someone put this into simpler words? I aint stupid at all but i have no idea about statistics and what Bayesian is, yet this seems somewhat important to me

[@robertpirsig5011]

@Arid Sohan Wow, great explaination. I think I heard Chomsky described it like this before. Imagine you are working in a chemistry lab and you say to your colleagues "I'm gonna just start mixing random chemicals together and do this many times no hypothesis or ideas just attempt randomly mixing". Chomsky then says, you'd be laughed out of the department.

Regardless of results statistical modeling tells you very less about what the world is actually like. The basic goal of science is to gain an understanding of reality which regressions run on elaborate statistical models having an endless number of learnable parameters simply does not provide.

Hahahaha

[@danzigvssartre]

Well, that was weird.

[@gyroscope3430]

Yeah, like AlphaGo's "success"?

All models are wrong but some are useful All I'm hearing is that statistical models are more useful than Platonist religion
