Looking forward to reading this new PNAS paper "A framework for quantifying individual and collective common sense"

doi.org/10.1073/pnas...

Reminds of something I've always wondered...if there is a quantitative way to think about how Sherlock Holmes patches together his observations

Common sense is much more complicated than most people realize. Fascinating new research in PNAS provides the first empirical measure of the concept, showing that it varies considerably across groups, and there is much less collective common sense than most realize: www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1...

How common is commonsense? Turns out that except for statements about physical reality... not that common.
