While seeking to be less wrong is a worthwhile goal, it is but one of many things to pursue. The question arises about why does a community need to be less wrong. What happens if you don't course correct? Sometimes, it's better just to let things happen.
- O__________O 4y agoGiven two communities, one who is intentionally trying to be less wrong, one that is not — they will both feel like they are less wrong than the other, but one will actually be less wrong. Scientific community generally speaking compared to non-scientific communities would not only be an example of this, but also shows the benefits of such practices, especially over extended durations.
