Episode 14 - Five Ways to Combat Survivorship Bias
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Evan examines the logical fallacy of survivorship bias, gives some examples, and then goes over five ways to avoid falling into this trap. He also uses a couple of examples from the teachings of Jesus to draw out some Biblical rationale for this as well.
