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.]

I read "epilogenic" as "like an epilogue".

Epilogenic - relating to or involved in the creation of an epilogue

Would be nice if this actually did cause the end and some kind of metaphorical postscript of eugenics but I doubt it's going to be that easy.

epilogenic - a CRISPR-engineered bacterium that eats hair
