The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

Yes, I appreciated Keiko Lukayam's take on this because I read it when we... So I think, speaking of spending too long talking about stuff, I think we spent way too long hemming and hawing about what you considered would be a huge drop in quality of the show.

And...

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

We're going to leave in, again, that verbal filler that I just used, unless the auto thing trips it and catches it or whatever.

But he had said, for me, TBC runs at 1.5 and some other podcasts I listen to run at 2x, despite the talking speed of the hosts being approximately the same, just because the content isn't as information dense and I don't need as much time to think.

If TBC ends up having a significant amount of ums and uhs, I might just bump you to 175 and lose no time.

So all those human hours that you're worried about ruining in Yash, I think, are safe.

Our listeners are smart and they'll be able to maximize their information to listening ratio to their satisfaction.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

We'll get them down to 1.25.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

I hope so.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

Perfect.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

And...

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

You know, it alliterates better.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

The seven virtues and the seven vices are nice compare contrast.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

I think that's also why he went for seven, even though I do feel like the list was padded a little bit.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

But no, I loved it.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

I think you make a good point.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

I like that a lot.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

Yeah, the seven sins.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

Although I think maybe the other reason he didn't do sins is that there's no virtuous amount of sin.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

Right.
