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.]

That list is fascinating as someone into a decent chunk of it. Like, yeah board games and meditation you can pull off as you being nerdy/hippy in a professional work environment. Polyamory and drugs are definitely some things that mark you as countercultural to the point they may be detrimental to getting along with folks. And meal replacement and overt analysis of social status+signalling games are so abnormal that even those of us who enjoy the rest of the list are going to be thinking "fuck, a rationalist"

And meal replacement

I genuinely don't know what that is. Is that about those magical protein shakes? Cause that's just chud-coded in my head, not necessarily rationalist
