in novaBBS, i've noticed that....

when i respond to an existing post, my msg shows up instantly....

BUT when i start a new thread, my new msg can sometimes take up to 4 mins. before it shows up in novaBBS.

------------ Thanks for the (real-life) puzzle!!!

This isn't dependent on whether it's a reply or new post, just a coincidence.

When you post, if the database is not too busy, the post is immediate, but if the database is busy, the post is queued for a few minutes. It will eventually show up.

interesting!

Confirmation bias: This is the tendency to seek out or interpret information in a way that confirms one's existing beliefs, even if the evidence is weak or incomplete. In this case, people with confirmation bias might focus on the few data points that support their theory and ignore or downplay anything that contradicts it.

Availability heuristic: This describes the mental shortcut where people favor information that is readily available in their memory when making judgments. This can lead to forming theories based on easily recalled examples, even if they aren't representative of the wider picture.

Anchoring bias: This is the tendency to rely too heavily on the first piece of information encountered when making decisions. People with an anchoring bias might use the initial data points they encounter as the foundation for their theory, neglecting to consider alternative possibilities.
