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.

Q I respect that. Lee, do you have any, uh, phobias you want to talk about?

A Um, oh man, I don't, pros? I don't think I have any, oh, well, a good one. Yeah, uh, yeah, so, uh, I was walking in Austin with Ariel, uh, our other partner about a year and a half ago, and we had just met a pretty well-known founder, uh, and, and we were just talking about that, and that was really interesting, and, um, A crow landed on my head, uh, out of nowhere, and I, and the way that I experienced it was I felt this weird thing, and then I looked at someone who was looking, walking towards me, and they were just like, What, what's going on? They were shocked, and then I realized that this crow just came on my head and fell off, and of course, Arielle, who I love, all she could do was laugh. She wasn't gonna help me. There was, she wasn't like, hey, there's a crow on your head. She just started cracking up and watched this crow land on my head. So, I have noticed that in the last, um, you know, ever since that, there are crows all over the place, and they're always kind of following me. I think my, I have a number of theories. I think it's because I, I once heard a pigeon long time ago by throwing a pen at it. Um, it was in an area that it shouldn't have been, and it hit, it hit the pigeon, and the pigeon wasn't very happy, and pigeons and crows are friends, like everyone knows, and I'm just dealing with that. So, anyway, it cracks the top of my head, and, um, you know, th…
