>In 2016, CFAR was ranked by Forbes as one of the best management consulting firms in the United States.

As far as I can tell, this statement is a LIE. A BLATANT LIE. I checked out the link and it DOES NOT SUPPORT the claim made.

>For the complete list of America's Best Management Consulting Firms, click here.

>CFAR is NOT PRESENT anywhere on that list

I would like to make it public knowledge that the user "kbog"

(http://effective-altruism.com/user/kbog/)

is a LIAR and a FRAUD. They should be EXCOMMUNICATED from the community.

Considering the cruise control in your post, I hope you at least added a "citation needed" or "not the the citation" to that Wikipedia page.

Except actually there is a "CFAR" on the list, it's just a different "CFAR" then the Center for Applied Rationality. So I'm going to go with "Wikipedia user made an error while writing a low-priority article" over "LIAR and FRAUD".

Oh, so they're just an incompetent, unintelligent loser.

Par for the course I suppose.

The person you're taking about may all of that, but if you're making this conclusion just from the mistaken Wikipedia edit, consider joining the Dragon Army. They seem to want people who never make or acept mistakes.

Kbog is [redacted], but UmamiSalami is a different person (I think his name is [redacted]). They may know each other tho.

No good evidence that these debiasing workshops work at all. By putting so many socially dysfunctional people together, they might be somewhat counter-productive as they enlarge their networks with other such people, whereas they would have been better off with some normies.

See for review Lilienfeld's old review

http://www3.nd.edu/~ghaeffel/Lilienfeld2009%20Perspectives%20on%20Psychological%20Science.pdf

This talk at ISIR 2015 showed some correlates of these rationalist type items, and they were not at all convincing. Knowing about these biases seems to be just be another knowledge group factor with little practical relevance.
