Comment by cwl on Welcome to Less Wrong! (8th thread, July 2015) · 2016-03-13T09:48:07.072Z · LW · GW

Hello LW,

My name is Colton. I'm a 22 year old electrical engineering student from Missouri who found Less Wrong about a year ago through Slate Star Codex and binged most of the sequences.

I have been interested in the study of bias and how to avoid it since I read the book Predictably Irrational a few years back. I also consider myself quite academic for an engineer, with a good deal of physics, math, and computer science theory under my belt.
