Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

Eliezer complements Musk, Musk negs Eliezer (nitter.net)

Some light sneerclub content in these dark times.

Eliezer complements Musk on the creation of community notes. (A project which predates the takeover of twitter by a couple of years (see the join date: https://twitter.com/CommunityNotes )).

In reaction Musk admits he never read HPMOR and he suggests a watered down Turing test involving HPMOR.

Eliezer invents HPMOR wireheads in reaction to this.

Something I will say about War and Peace that's rarely mentioned - probably because it is a work that is meant to mark one out as a cultured person - within the first 50 pages of the book, there's a scene where a group of the main characters tie a policeman to the back of a bear. For some reason, it's the part of the book that's stuck with me the longest in association with its story.
