Dan’s view was that freedom of speech is too general and needs to be broken down into separate categories. So let’s do that and consider how the current legal mechanisms handle each case vs. the ratings system. Defamation/slander/libel – The ratings system is a good natural way to handle this. It can distinguish first th..."

If you’d prefer to skip to that, just go to the next section. This section is somewhat of an essay on how/why, in a Bayesian approach, our thinking becomes more limited. Bayes restricts us in both a hard technical sense and more generally in how we think about the informa..."

To do this we can compute the Pcomb for all the nodes in the network, whether they’ve answered or not, by putting P=50% on the nodes that haven’t answered. This way they don’t affect the calculation and the calculation can remain as simple as possible: just compute as if you have all the infor..."

Each node is first assigned probabilities for a particular outcome (eg 60% Red, 30% Blue, 10% Green). Then, based on trust, the nodes’ probabilities are adjusted (or smoothed, as Sapienza puts it) up..."
