I’ve been reading OB and LW for years. I’m sure I’ve read at least 3⁄4 of what was posted on OB and 1⁄2 of highly voted posts on LW. I wouldn’t call myself a beginner, and I still really appreciated this post.
Every once in awhile it’s nice to be able to step back and be reminded what it’s all about, so thanks for writing this!
I point people who are new to this to the Sequences but that always feels like I’m dumping too much on them. Hopefully, this post will make a better introduction to rationality and why we need it.
Overcoming Bias; most of Eliezer’s LW writing was originally posted on OB, until LW was created as a community where it would be easier for other people to write about these topics as well, and Eliezer’s writing got moved here.

Excuse my ignorance, what is OB?
