Granted. But OP seems to be at the other extreme which is equally problematic:
> Everyone reads a book, everyone but me likes it.
That strongly implies a boolean value judgment to me.
- renewiltord 6y agoI think that's just a shortcoming of terse communication. I would wager he's not zeroing out the coefficients considering the context. Maybe $10 at 5:1 if there were a way to ensure fairness on the bet.
- Matticus_Rex 6y agoNah, he's right. I often just end up with "I found parts of this persuasive and appealing, but I can't trust it because those parts are things I don't know much about, and in the parts I do know a lot about, there were serious issues." It's not that I think I know the rest is bad, too; it's that I know I don't know.
