Sadly, I didn't know about the Bayesian conspiracy until after I wrote this comic. In fact, I've had the name "Bayesian Empirimancer" in my sketchbook for about a year now until I found an excuse to put it in something. Mainly I just wanted an RPG character that fought using probabilistic confidence.
Of course, Eliezer and I are both Mega Geniuses™, so it should come to no surprise when parallel ideas emerge.
