Description
Julia Galef (@juliagalef) is the host of the Rationally Speaking podcast, co-founder of The Center for Applied Rationality, and author of The Scout Mindset: Why Some People See Things Clearly and Others Don't.
What We Discuss with Julia Galef:
How to spot bad arguments and faulty thinking -- even when the source is you.
The difference between having a soldier mindset that defends whatever you want to be true, and a scout mindset that's motivated to seek out the truth regardless of how unpleasant it might be (and which you should try to cultivate).
How to tell if you're making reasonable mistakes or foolhardy leaps of faith that carry consequences far outweighing the value of the lesson.
The best ways to manage and respond to uncertainty.
How your brain matches arguments you misunderstand with ones you've already decided you don't agree with -- and what to do about it.
And much more...
