Card 29 has a typo. "hte game of hide and go seek". So does card 32: " had been debunked adn proven false"

Thank you, I will fix it and update in the workshop.

UPD: fixed, updated all links to the new version.

I now see what you mean by fallacies being X (errors in argumentation) and cognitive biases Y (errors in thinking).

However, you're using an idiosyncratic definition of the word "reasoning", and I would advise you to update your understanding so you reduce the chance of confusing more people in the future. "Reasoning" in many cases refers to internal thinking, as you can see explained here.

Ok, thank you.

What's the difference? I don't see a distinction between the phrases "faulty reasoning" and "mistake in thinking".

Comment author: Alexander230 24 July 2016 08:51:07AM 0 points [-]

Reasoning is when you tell your arguments to another person. Thinking is when you make decisions for yourself.

Great bias cards!

They are fallacy cards. Fallacy can be explained as "faulty reasoning" or "bad argument", and cognitive bias is "mistake in thinking". They have many similarities and intersections, though.
