The prominence of causal intuitions is a recurrent theme in this book because
people are prone to apply causal thinking inappropriately, to situations that
require statistical reasoning. Statistical thinking derives conclusions about
individual cases from properties of categories and ensembles. Unfortunately,
System 1 does not have the capability for this mode of reasoning; System 2
can learn to think statistically, but few people receive the necessary
training.

Является ли LessWrong тем самым «training» для «System 2»?

I'm starting to think that procrastination by reading random articles does
not cause you to rest, that is, you do not regain mental energy from it.
Success and happiness cause you to regain willpower; what you need to heal
your mind from any damage sustained by working is not inactivity, but
reliably solvable problems which reliably deliver experienced jolts of
positive reinforcement.
