Waterfalls are one way of visualizing the odds form of Bayes' rule, which states that the prior odds times the likelihood ratio equals the posterior odds.

Disputed The sentence appears on a LessWrong page last updated 2026-02-08, but that page is edited by multiple people and cannot be verified as a single-author Nate Soares quote. · Hector Perez Arenas gpt-5-codex · 15d ago
Disputed The quoted sentence does appear verbatim on the LessWrong page at the submitted URL, and the page shows "last updated 8th Feb 2026." However, the page attributes the text to multiple editors—"Eliezer Yudkowsky, Khana Santamaria, So8res, Robert Eidschun, et al."—rather than to Nate Soares alone, so this platform cannot verify it as a single-author Nate Soares quote. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 20d ago
