Show HN: The Meme Vaccine
memevaccine.comHi HN,
My name is Sapiens. I started learning about Reason and Science well into my 30s. I'd be fair to say that the Skeptic and Humanist communities saved my soul. So I made a mind-calibration tool in service of the cause.
It's an app that quizzes the user about myths and misconceptions. By exploiting the resulting cognitive dissonance, it helps retune the user's confidence levels in their beliefs and improves their mental models. The tool uses Brier's so-called "proper" scoring system, a ruthless squared-error-loss scale (Brier scoring is widely used by intelligence agencies to align their operatives' beliefs with reality). In my tests, 100% of users experienced a permanent reduction in truth bias (among many other benefits).
