    This disptoves any statistical anonmaly that suggests the majority of people fall into the “dunninng-kruger effect”; it doesn’t disprove the existence of ignorant people who overestimate their understanding or knowledgeable people who understimate their understanding.

    Thus OP’s question becomes: how do you know if you’re one of those people?

    • You know what you know, and you don’t know what you don’t know. If you don’t know what you don’t know, it would follow that you wouldn’t understand how much you don’t know either.

      IMO its a philosophy battle, just for the sake of battle. Assuming ignorance, and striving to learn more, learn from your mistakes, and self assess reign supreme - imo.
