I am obsessed with group epistemology just enough to suggest the probably-bad idea that a much-better-written version of this post should maybe be posted to the main LW section, and maybe even once a month. This allows people who don't constantly check LW discussion to get in on the fun, and if we want to avoid evaporative cooling those are just the kind of people whose critiques we most want. Not only is this perhaps a good idea for group epistemology but it is also a good signal to the wider aspiring-to-sanity community.

We'll see what the response to this post is, and plan from there, or not.

(ETA: Perhaps a general (both positive and negative) feedback post with relatively lax comment quality expectations would be better; as User:atucker points out in another comment on this post, there is utility to be had in positive feedback.)
