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.]

what the fuck is he trying to achieve here

I like how the first post is just an exercise in telling nobody whatsoever that he got in ahead of most people with the right answer, blissfully unaware of the upshot that all this implies is he’s the kind of dipshit who sees discourse online and immediately hits the prediction markets to make the easiest contrarian take this side of “maybe we shouldn’t suck up to this Hitler asshole”

judging by EY’s reply in the thread, he’s doing his best to convince us he’s terrible with money:

You're associating those quotes with events that didn't happen. I didn't buy that high or sell that low; the thing I was explaining was not that. (It was, among other things, a real-money trade that I thought had executed but hadn't.)

fuck, I’ve known day traders who spent less time justifying their losses than this, and all those folks did all day was coke
