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 did not know that Bostrom boasts of being an undergraduate prodigy like Yudkowsky and Geoff Anders boast of being child prodigies. Doing impressive things is not enough, they have to rank themselves against the vulgar masses.
