tell me you didn’t subject yourself to glowfic

not defining a person by the community they relate to

u wot m8? they’re hanging out with active racists recruiting people to racism and their response is to stop taking those guys to parties? you fuckin bet i’m gonna judge them by relating to that community

source: a reblog of the original

first time i spoke to a rationalist about the AI doom thing in 2010, he tried to sell me on scientific racism

yudkowsky was making posts literally of race scientist talking points in 2007

oh yeah they’re going all out

it’s shorter!

i actually got hold of a review copy of this

(using the underhand scurvy weasel trick of asking for one)

that was two weeks ago and i still haven’t opened it lol

better get to that, sigh

and it was 2014

this post was the starting pistol for rationalists taking as much adderall as they could get down their necks. Scott is not telling you that adderall will make you a financial genius and super effective, you understand. Except Kelsey Piper, who he literally says this about by name.

This is the post that made it a rationalist commonplace that adderall makes anyone a super effective financial genius.

Somehow, Scott still has a license.

His practice has a name drawn from Lord of the Rings like other things in the Thielsphere.

fuckin lol, I had not spotted this, what a tell

but look, i liked this article,

nah he’s almost certainly talking about the post on old-sneerclub, the rationalists seem almost unaware this one exists.

and our very good friends and their predecessors have wanted to automate away the human decision bit since forever.

oh nah it’s fine, LW is what it’s for

smarmy not as cryptic as he thought right-winger on lobsters who didn’t quite hide his power level

I finally found which user we’re talking about and I am quietly delighted at that smarmy fucker being directed to the fourth-floor egress.

edit: here’s the long form mod last warning. You’ll see in that thread my next prediction for ejection via the fourth floor, whose profile shows he’s into crypto.

her favourite online handle is “the unit of caring” (or TUOC), which is an Eliezerism for money.

btw I read Said’s responses to his banning and if that dude ever shows up here he’s gone the second he’s spotted

you can tell the real problem was I called them racist
