The comments disturb me: > Surprising you didn't talk about trusting your gut. >> I will admit that I struggle with finding a balance between brevity and comprehensiveness. You're suggestion is absolutely right in that I could have put some additional guidance on using common sense and/or trusting one's guts/instincts when something doesn't feel right and it makes more sense to be more cautious. This seems to be a disturbing trend recently. Inflating people's sense that their biases are not only valuable inputs but actually accurate. This flies in the face of all quantitative studies that show exactly the opposite. I think the most egregious thing I've seen recently along these lines was a Sam Harris podcast about "the gift of fear" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uh9OpbJXOHA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uh9OpbJXOHA
