The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

A Is that the goal? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. A hundred percent, yes. But the, the, it's hard. Like, you, you have to be, I was, when I, when I think about This is gonna, I'm trying to think of a way to say this that's not gonna sound arrogant. Um, in terms of, like, success as a writer, as a side, it was like, I mean, I had a, I have a career at Founders Fund. Separate from that, I started writing, and my job as a writer, in terms of the revenue that that generates, is, like, you know, top Five percent in the whole country in terms of the most successful you could possibly be as a writer. And that is, it's not that much money. It's, it's like, we're talking before I, uh, built it into, into, into PirateWires, it was like generating like a 150,000 dollars a year.
