Honour I don’t know about; I feel like any honour lost you could gain back by giving us a costly signal that you are recalibrating. But it does let us determine how badly calibrated you are, and then we can make judgements like pr(wedrifid is wrong | wedrifid is badly calibrated).
Particularly when the ‘prediction’ was largely my way of complimenting the quote in a non-boring way. :P
I was actually relieved when I didn’t found it wasn’t in the quotes thread. I wasn’t sure what I would update to if it was a double post. Slightly upward, only a little—there were too many complications. I can even imagine lowering p(double post | a quote is awesome and relevant) based finding that the instance is, in fact, a double post. (If the probability is particularly high and the underlying reasoning was such that I expected comments of that level of awesome to have been reposted half a dozen times.)
The tricky part now is not to prevent my intuitive expectation from updating too much. I’ve paid particular attention to this instance so by default I would expect my intuitions to base to much on the single case.
