IMHO, I think Bayesianism is more interesting than a lot of the stuff discussed here. The idea that all reasoning can be done as Bayesian inference is pretty damn cool. If someone looks at the above and thinks "Whoa, Bayesianism is neat! I should go read more about it!" then I'm happy, but if everyone is just thinking "Duh, of course 2 + 2 = 4"... well, shit.

By my contribution, I am guilty by association. But do you realize how pointless this discussion is getting? Ha. Only on hacker news.
2+2 = 4. Thus it is written.
