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.]

Effective altruism? Shame NY doesn't have capital punishment, I suppose.
I can understand being drawn to the concept of effective altruism. There's nothing inherently wrong with the idea of wanting to do the greatest amount of hood for the greatest amount of people. Unfortunately, in practice, effective altruists always seem to think the best way to do that is to amass as much wealth as possible.
In their defense you have to make money to spend money ^on^ ^castles^
Time to get really angry, not deny the purchase, but get annoyed they should more be classified as stately homes.
