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.]

Some innocent people died so it's sad stuff, but I can't get past the fact that they named a top heavy weirdly balanced yacht the Bayesian.

Well on the bright side naval engineers will be able to update their ~~drivers~~ priors after this perfectly engineered unsinkable sink sa--

“This boat had definite shortcomings that kind of uniquely made it vulnerable to what happened.”

“people would take photos of it constantly because it was so crazy-looking in comparison to other boats.”

Philipp Luke, a Dutch naval architect, started violently shaking his head. “No, no, no,” he said. “You don’t do that.”

“When I first saw this, I couldn’t believe it,” said Mr. Roberts, the naval architect. “It made no sense to me.”

“Technology moved on,” Mr. Costantino said.

Oh.

The boat wasnt called that at first, the guy who ordered it gave it a different name. Guess he sold it as the weirdest HP assassination play
