“To be humble is to take specific actions in anticipation of your own errors. To confess your fallibility and then do nothing about it is not humble; it is boasting of your modesty. Who are most humble? Those who most skillfully prepare for the deepest and most catastrophic errors in their own beliefs and plans.”

Do you know what it looks like to have humility in the face of Framing Effects? It’s carrying around a fucking custom tarot deck. Because you will encounter problems that are tricky, and your first instinct will be to respond to the framing that the problem happened to be presented to you in. And then you can draw a new, random set of premises from your handy distribution of generic human-scope framing concepts, which you use to loosely reinterpret your understanding of the situation and see if that triggers different intuitions.
