Overcoming bias

This site is totally fascinating, and like TV Tropes and Wikipedia, it has that hyperlink-means-staying-forever power.

ETA: I'm going to start adding some especially cool entries here as I find them:

• Belief in belief
• Making beliefs pay rent
• Hindsight bias
• The proper use of doubt

ETA: I can't help but notice that all the essays that make me go "eee!" are by Eliezer Yudkowsky, who also describes the Twelve Virtues of Rationality. I think I have a new hero.

ETA: I'll probably link back to here in another post once I've added a few more links.

• Outside the laboratory
• Human evil and muddled thinking
• How to seem (and be) deep
