I much prefer Dunning-Notice-Krueger. I get a credit collections notice delivered by a guy with a metal-clawed glove. Now with Fedora!

Actually, I do know. I’ve spent 30 minutes researching it the other day, so I actually know a ton about it.

Here’s a good post, that argues the dunning-kruger effect is not real. I guess I am one of those annoying “well actually, …” types now.

The biggest misunderstanding of the Dunning Kruger effect is the idea that it only applies to certain people. It applies to everyone, we all overestimate our expertise at times. It’s a cognitive bias that we all have to knowingly watch out for, not something that indicates stupidity.

And then one day you do.
