Epistemic Status

Culture of origin: lesswrong-adjacent blogging communities

The epistemic status is a short disclaimer at the top of a post that explains how confident the author is in the contents of the post, how much reputation the author is willing to stake on it, what sorts of tests the thesis has passed.

It should give a reader a sense of how seriously they should take the post.
It had "Epistemic Status: Wild off-the-cuff speculation" so I didn't bother to read it. It seemed entertaining, just didn't have time.

He said "Epistemic Status: Would bet at 30:1 odds in favour of the thesis and I probably one of the top 100 theorists in the intersection of the relevant fields" but it still seemed completely insane to me. Heads better roll if/when it turns out to be wrong. Like, I mean it, he should lose all of his social capital. People should stop reading his blog and his eigenkarma should be reset (If he's somehow right though I will be very impressed)

They are true pioneers of Industrial, generally using and playing real instruments rather than recording them digitally.

street epistemology

A non-threatening, often public, discourse; designed to identify, explore and possibly modify deeply held personal beliefs through the use of the Socratic method.
Through my exposure to street epistemology, it became evident to me that faith--as a foundation for sustaining religious belief--is unreliable. How could divergently opposing religious systems expect to use faith as a method of conveying revealed Truth, yet come to mutually incompatible conclusions? Answer: they can not.

Benjamin Einstein

What you would call a stupid person to make them feel better about themselves.
Albert said, "Yeah I told him he was a regular Benjamin Einstein. He got a big smile on his face and thanked me."
Thomas said laughing, "So did he really think gluing lube to his hand would allow him to masturbate anywhere?"
"Think it! He had already done it!"
"hahahaha"
