I understand your frustration @yoginho@spore.social. It's clear that you regard the stakes on this as exceedingly high and you're over being patient when it leads to individuals ultimately dodging your criticisms.
But even when we are frustrated, let's punch up, not down.
(For what it's worth, I've never heard you comment on these issues before and I'm very much listening).

@NicoleCRust@neuromatch.social Thanks for your intervention! I was getting frustrated with this particular individual, but there is not reason to punch down. The situation inspired me to write a short blog post called "The Thing about Epistemic Humility." http://www.johannesjaeger.eu/blog/the-thing-about-epistemic-humility I think it's important to know when such humility is appropriate (even essential) and when it is definitely not.
