This is possible if what “you” are is relaxed so that you’ve got multiplicity. If you, as an observer, transform and cycle through different kinds of observers, you’re an ensemble of shapeshifting you’s. If you could relax your sense of self, ambiguating who you were, and perhaps expecting all your selves to recombine at a later point—you could notice when you were not able to fully collect all of your selves. If you’re forced to disambiguate, that could indicate your measure was lost.
This sounds as if you are describing an action that a person can take, and an observation you can make of the results of that action, but I can’t make out what the action or the observation are.
Translating the “Anthropic Shadow” into mundane language, are you saying, “when you notice you have had a brush with death, learn from the experience to better stay away from it in future”?
The action might be something like: varying your behavior in such a way where you’re shifting the nature of yourself as an observer often and along several axes.
If you track the ways you’re changing and notice when some of them disappear, that’d be the observation.
Regarding the “brush with death” bit: yes, that seems like some way to put it. Of course, it’s more interesting the more you can detect directions towards/away from doom that may be unintuitive, and if there’s a skill here you can refine.
There is an observation that 10 000 rule’s violation results in 100 near-miss accidents and 1 death (not exact number, just my approximate memory and can vary in different situations). A person can calculate the number of near-misses he survived and calculate if he is affected by survivorship bias.
