What constitutes a proposition? What kinds of cards will we need?

shanberg commented 6 years ago

Preliminary rough sketch of proposition flow....

Each proposition is composed of a text box for an English description, a smaller textbox for your prior probability, inputs on the left, and outputs on the right. Whenever you connect the output to the input of another card, a textbox appears on that link representing the likelihood ratio (how many times more likely the receiving proposition is to be true if the sending proposition is true). It'll default to 1:1. On each proposition, there will also be a label representing the calculated probability that this proposition is true. When you first make a new proposition on the canvas, its calculated probability is just the prior you specify. Connecting things updates it.
