Overcoming Bias

By Robin Hanson

This is a blog on why we believe and do what we do, why we pretend otherwise, how we might do better, and what our descendants might do, if they don't all die.

Brilliant, high-level writing on economics, philosophy, the future, and more. Great insights, though may be technical/obscure for some.

Astral Codex Ten

By Scott Alexander

P(A|B) = [P(A)*P(B|A)]/P(B), all the rest is commentary.

I cannot recommend Astral Codex Ten highly enough! It takes an objective, curious, and wide-ranging approach. It is a primary inspiration for Maximum Truth.
