WIP for an upcoming post about how futurity affects different types of not-knowing:

not-knowing ✹ 🍕-fan ✹ productive discomfort + idk ✹ Marseille / Singapore / Auvergne ✹ The Uncertainty Mindset (2020) ✹ now: vaughntan.org/now-ish

Why are actions outcomes causation and value the four Types you consider?
Interested to know the steps that led to that split

v gd qn — there are many ways to subdivide the domain of [things not known]. i use actions/outcomes/causation/value because a lot of our existing ways of thinking about partial knowledge are risk-based.

wrote about it here: https://vaughntan.org/how-to-think-more-clearly-about-risk

(unpacked more in next few casts)

Be specific.

and i added values because that is a clear gap in thinking about partial knowledge that has direct impact on making decisions in partial knowledge situations — explicitly thinking about value not-knowing changes how decisions are made.

in risk, all possible actions, outcomes, and action-outcome probabilities are known. using the actions/outcomes/causation framework lets these other forms of not-knowing be directly tied to existing ways of thinking about risk and acting on it.
