By Constellate · 9 September 2026 · the short form

Recency Bias is a star on the Constellate sky: placed by meaning, named, and connected to the stars around it. This is the short form of its post: the line it carries, the area we colour Biases, and what stands beside it today.

The line it carries on the sky: The last few years quietly become the forecast for all the years ahead.

What stands beside it

The stars nearest to it are The Availability Heuristic, Base-Rate Neglect, Black Swan and Disposition Effect, and The Availability Heuristic is already open to walk. When Recency Bias opens, the conversation will land it among them, with a line drawn to each idea it touches.
