Cognitive biases affect everything we do. Amongst other things, they make us spend impulsively, be overly influenced by what other people think. They change our beliefs, our opinions, and our decisions, and we have no idea it is happening. When we are aware of our biases, it is sometimes possible, to estimate the bias and then modify our behaviour.

What an amazing idea! How many facts currently exist in the database and do you have a way to prevent displaying those that have already been displayed to the user?

@footer Thanks for the kind words. At the moment there are under 200 biases listed. We haven't thought of preventing biases that have already been displayed to be shown again for a couple of reasons. 1. You'd probably go through them pretty quickly. 2. We're seeing this more as a reminder of the biases rather than just a way to learn about them. Hope that makes sense. Curious to hear what you think. Thanks

I always find it fascinating how humans have a tendency to surround ourselves with things that reinforce our own views. I've been using this extension for a couple of days now and it's already opening up my eyes to biases I'm definitely guilty of!
