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.]

Hi, Ivy Astrix here. I saw some of my work referenced here so figured I'd pop in and do an AMA. I did harm reduction at Vibecamp 1/2, and Vibegala 1/2. Happy to answer what I can as long as it doesn't violate confidences or isn't in service of personal grievances.

Um. Lots of questions, but none are important, because TBH if I don't know then it is probably stuff that does not personally matter to me.

What and where are or were Vibecamp and Vibegala? Never heard of them.

What does "harm reduction" mean? What does "SA'd" mean?

Really hate to say this, but if you're coming from a place of ignorance and want to ask about what terms mean, you might want to be extra careful with how you ask. You should also do some homework on your own before trying to participate.

Seconding the core sentiment here

Those that have gone through abuse and hurt already have a lot on their plate, and having to handhold others through it is a lot of work - try to be mindful of what you might be asking from another
