This is a website anyone can join. Some people participate here for years; some came yesterday; plus anything in between. So even the “most obvious” information may be valuable for those who joined yesterday (assuming it is correct). But of course, the larger audience finds it valuable, the better.
an interesting experiment … see the reactions … provokative
Uhm, please don’t. (Or get ready to be downvoted; that is a rational response to having one’s time wasted by provocations, isn’t it?)
Please be more concrete.
I anticipate ordinary folks to have nothing but holes in hardly any knowledge.
It might be an interesting experiment making such a post (ie. the above motivated but naive, newbie “Hey guys, …” kinda post) and see the reactions.
As provokative as that may be, it might reveal how debugged fellow rationalist really are...
Possibly related to Elo’s comment: On saying the obvious
