So presumably we can expect a post soon explaining the background & procedure, giving data and perhaps predictions or hash precommitments, with an analysis of the results; all of which will also demonstrate that this is not a post hoc excuse.
I can't, no. I'd guess you'd have to ask someone at Trike, and I don't know if they'd be willing to help you out...
Well basically I did expect much more negative ratings, and then I'd just stop posting on those. I couldn't actually set up proper study without zillion socks, and that'd be serious abuse. I am currently quite sure you guys are not Eliezer cult. You might be a bit of an idea cult but not terribly much. edit: Also as you guys are not Eliezer cult, and as he actually IS pretty damn good at talking people into silly stuff, in so much it is also evidence he's not building a cult.
re: email address, doesn't matter too much.
edit: Anyhow, I hope you do consider content of the comments to be of the benefit, actually I think you do. E.g. my comment against the idea of overcoming some biases, I finally nailed what bugs me so much about the 'overcomingbias' title and the carried-over cached concept of overcoming them.
edit: do you want me to delete all socks? No problem either way.
