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?

Vibecamp is a meetup for the rationalist subculture, especially of the TPOT (That Part Of Twitter) subgroup. Curtis Yarvin was an honoured guest in 2022 and got treated like a rock star.

The person who talked about microdosing meth as a substitute for Adderall was writing about Vibecamp (I have not reread this post, please use discretion if anything about Rationalist events could be traumatizing).
