So glad you’ve come over to share your updated experience. And I was one of the 30MM who shared the huge chart of biases way back. I was a student in the tradition of Heuristics & Biases when I studied at Stanford, so long ago that Amos Tversky was still alive. Both Kahneman & Tversky explicitly doubted that knowing about biases could enable us to overcome the ‘fast thoughts’ that generate an immediate interpretation. I’ve heard both of them compare biases to optical illusions, which don’t go away when you realize they are illusions.
