Just wanted to say I found this conversation very interesting - so much so I will be taking a look at the previously linked ones. I think I also found it useful. Although I’ve read what I think is a significant amount of Rationality texts, I still feel that for some very basic stuff that is touched upon here, I am still as flabbergasted as much as any layman, and that the talk helped clarify some things.
