- schoen 7y agoThe biconditional is a pretty strong claim here (especially considering that you yourself have written well-regarded introductions to this topic).
- Eliezer 7y agoIt's spoken tongue-in-cheek, but in fact I don't know of any other intros including all of my own other efforts that I would make that claim about. Writing Bayes intros that actually work and introduce the most critical concepts is hard. Read the Arbital intro and compare others before you assume I'm joking or that the joke is false.
