//Here is a link but I’ve also put the code here (and I explain it below).
//critical stuff
pc_to(a, b) = truncate(a to b, 0, 1)
//ranking improvmenet can close what % of distance between current and perfection
chance_ranked_correctly_before = pc_to(0.4, 0.95)
ranking_error = truncate(0.1 to 1.1, 0, 2)
timing_and_contribution_sensitivity = pc_to(0.01, 0.5)
//stuff that's the same before and after //how sensitive are EAs writing articles in time to forum ranking? it might 10% to 10x improve //this needs to get smaller when better // for what it's worth ranking articles 40% might be really good
