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.]

The post:

I think Eliezer Yudkowsky & many posts on LessWrong are failing at keeping things concise and to the point.

The replies: "Kolmogorov complexity", "Pareto frontier", "reference class".

"Kolmogorov complexity" lol ow god they are just tossing terms around again. Kolmogorov has nothing todo with being mega verbose.

the CS experts on the orange site and LW: “how can there be a halting problem when I refuse to ever stop?”
