Why do I not test it

Why do I ask for people's opinions concerning questions I have involving measurement or outcomes when I could illuminate same, in a much more engaged manner, by running my own tests?

Because setting up what you want to test might take several hours, and there's a possibility someone has already done what you are considering and a few keystrokes from their experience saves a couple of days of your life if they're willing to share?

Why do I assume someone who writes posts in forums has answered my question, by claiming to know the answer?

Why do I waste time reading and responding to posts with no responses?

Because even though many people have done these tests, they are difficult to find because they have never been cataloged in any meaningful way.

The first step, always, is research

@BBGiovanni Hijacking my thread? (j/k)

CBeisbol A good point about cataloging



Member: Forum, how much should I pay in taxes?
Forum: $9022.88
Member: Thanks, forum!
Forum: no probs brah

Member: How long will it take me to get to Minneapolis?
Forum: It took me 11 hours.
Forum: It took me 45 minutes.
Member: Thanks, forum!
Forum: no probs brah
Forum: (didn't reply)

Member: Does the AI favour RHP over LHP?
Forum: Yes.
Member: Thanks, forum!
Forum: Wait, I meant no.
Member: Thanks, forum!
Forum: Wait, I meant yellow.
Member: Thanks, forum!
Forum: no probs brah

In all the above cases, pulled from actual archival research, the same logical fallacy is demonstrated. Can anyone point out what it might be?
