What are the distinction between known unknowns?

A known unknown is something we know isn’t there, but we also know it’s missing.

Imagine you’re playing hide and seek in your living room. You know that the couch is not hiding anyone, that's a known unknown because you're sure no one is under the couch, even though they might be somewhere else like behind the TV or in the closet.

Let’s say you’re looking for your favorite toy, and you check all the places where it usually hides. You know it’s not on the floor, that's a known unknown because you’ve looked there already and didn’t find it.

But maybe it's under the bed, that's an unknown unknown because you didn't think of checking there yet.

A known unknown is like a missing piece in your puzzle, you know it’s not where you checked, but you don’t know exactly where it is. You just keep looking, and eventually, you’ll find it!

So next time you're searching for something, remember: a known unknown is like a clue that says "Not here, but I'll be somewhere else!"A known unknown is something we know isn’t there, but we also know it’s missing.
