I merely outlined what I would want if I was a moderator. I would rather receive email with statistical analysis than be compared to Hitler and Stalin without any data to back it up. It would be way funnier if someone proved statistically t

Yes. That's what I mean. If there is an API then we can use mathematical models to answer questions about bias or lack thereof. I also don't think that it's possible to have any forum without bias so the data I'm certain

I think there is a solution to this problem. If moderator decisions are made and recorded publicly then the data can at least be analyzed objectively. If there is indeed a bias then someone should be able to sit down and do the statistical

> What can be known in a system without rigor? That’s the question to make rigorous, I think. Who is working on making that rigorous?

Interesting. I wonder if someone has tried to combine the two. I guess modern deep reinforcement learning is one such combination because it combines feedback (reinforcement) and probabilistic descriptions but maybe there are other interest

I think adding "Most Favorited" would create a popularity contest and people would start looking for ways to game the system. I don't think favorites should have metrics associated with them because as soon as metrics are int

But why is that a causal explanation? If I can write down a simulation of planetary motion then that doesn't necessarily explain the causal mechanism behind why the planets actually move. In fact, there are simulations for planetary mo

How does having a program / algorithm and checking it on various input values help with understanding causality?

I guess it's tricky because the real world is full of feedback loops. If you want a causal model for fake news then your model needs to include some representation of incentives for ad revenue and clickbait. How does the causal inferen

My point about emotionally charged language is that it's deceptive. It's a trick some people use the draw in the reader and get them to identify with the writer instead of the argument they're making. So when I see emotionall
