A common source of disappointment is recency bias: weighing the last week more heavily than the last year.

Zooming in on the immediate past magnifies slumps. Zooming out farther reveals upward slopes.

Progress is rarely visible at a snapshot in time. It unfolds over a lifetime.

This conversation shows why misusing the word "bot" to mean "thing I don't like" rather than "automated account" is and always has been a bad idea.

Right-wingers referring to critics of Kyle Rittenhouse as "bots" and getting the new management's attention is the obvious result.
