EpochFail

You see, one thing is, I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong.

I have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty about different things, but I'm not absolutely sure of anything and there are many things I don't know anything about, such as whether it means anything to ask why we're here and what the question might mean.

I might think about it a little bit and if I can't figure it out, then I go on to something else, but I don't have to know an answer, I don't feel frightened by not knowing things, by being lost in a mysterious universe without having any purpose, which is the way it is really in so far as I can tell.

It doesn't frighten me.

This user is an administrator and OAuth administrator on Meta-Wiki. (verify)


The majority of my work involves the development and maintenance of wiki tools. I used to work as a research scientist at the Wikimedia Foundation (as User:Halfak (WMF)) from 2011 - 2020. All of my wiki-research, whether staff or volunteer, ends up in the m:Research:Index. I also like to Wikipedia articles relating to computer science, mycology, psychology and philosophy.

Other accounts

I own and use User:PermaNoob, User:GLTester and User:Wiki labeler for testing user scripts. I only use those accounts to perform test edits or to test new interface modifications. Edits I performed as a WMF staff member mostly occur through User:Halfak (WMF). All of my work on the wiki comes from this account.
