In reply to: @debugwandtwitter.com @debugwandtwitter.com @petetrainortwitter.com I appreciate the bias issues and I don’t think they’re separate or likely to go away.

In reply to: @petetrainortwitter.com @petetrainortwitter.com @debugwandtwitter.com I did, but is ‘instinctual’ behaviour the right kind to aim for? Instincts are typically formed as survival mechanisms because humans are not able evaluate situations quickly, so use shortcuts (bias) as a way to make decisions quickly. Perhaps this is a semantics query ππ€?
