Is it just me or is Overcoming Bias almost reaching the point of self-parody with recent posts like http://www.overcomingbias.com/2010/12/renew-forager-law.html ?
I think Robin is playing at something like fourth- or fifth-order contrarian at this point.
For some posts, only occasionally, I wonder if Robin Hanson is intentionally messing with the LessWrong crowd that's still over there, posting the most plausible stuff he can think of that's.... well... wrong.
But this is simply wild mass guessing on my part.
There's a word for doing that on the Internet. I wonder what that word is.
