2020 Predictions: Calibration Results

https://astralcodexten.substack.com/p/2020-predictions-calibration-results   At the beginning of every year, I make predictions. At the end of every year, I score them (this year I'm very late). Here are 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019. And here are the predictions I made for 2020. Some predictions are redacted because they involve my private life or the lives of people close to me. Usually I use strikethrough for things that didn't happen, but since Substack doesn't let me strikethrough text or change its color or do anything interesting, I've had to turn the ones that didn't happen into links. Italicized are getting thrown out because they were confusing or conditional on something that didn't happen. I can't decide if they're true or not. All of these judgments were as of December 31 2020, not as of now. (Remember, link means something that didn't happen, not something I was wrong about. We have a debate every year over whether 50% predictions are meaningful in this paradigm; feel free to continue it.)
