alt Hacker NewsI think the paper is about bias formation, not reflecting existing bias.
If the formed bias was against HN usernames that started with “r,” would it still seem daft?

There is no position lacking bias. The question of bias against me is a political position not an epistemological problem that can be eliminated. I see authors that are unaware of things like context and relativity.
When ppl say there is an absolute truth that we need to stick to, they are slipping in a totalitarian political position and calling it truth. It runs against the whole premise of nature and life, which has rested for 4 billion years on: Alternative competing positions, seeing which one works best.
