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.]

Ok I figured out how to salvage it. People come on and pitch sensible business ideas that get shot down. We’d also get quotes like:
Aella: “If I take on an advisory role, will I be required to shower?”
Pinker: draws line up and to the right on graph “This problem is already as good as solved. I don’t see why any action on my part is necessary.”
EY: “You do not think in sufficient detail, and for that reason, I’m out.”
Watch me bring them something unnecessarily overcomplicated that boosts their ego to win all of the money.
A micropayment platform designed to integrate with long form textual content. The subscribers will be able to vote with their wallets on the topic they wish the CONTENT_CREATOR to cover.
But there's a game theoretic twist. The final price of each vote will be discounted based on the share of votes it received, so if you vote for the winning option, your votes will end up costing less. This encourages strategic voting based on what would be the most interesting topic to the largest share of subscribers, incentivizing subscribers to maximize for total utility instead of just their own interests.
Additionally, below a certain threshold of share the votes will be free of charge. This is to encourage heterodox views and foster engagement with unconventional interests that would otherwise be risky to vote for.
The cutoff for the free Complimentary Contrarian's Votes will be determined by a prediction market running in parallel with the vote.
The winning votes will become investments into the post, binding the CONTENT_EXCRECATOR to CREATE_THE_CONTENT and based on some configurable metric (post score, ad revenue etc.) the investment will accrue dividends, which the subscriber can cash out to a charitable organization. However, this can only be done once per publication per subscriber, meaning the subscriber should wait for the investment to accumulate before cashing in. A global high score will show the subscribers who have cashed in the largest amount in donations and their voting power will be increased in proportion to their score.
I want 15% equity and a public live stream session of the AI box game with Yud where I roleplay as the shittalking French knight from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
I'm in, but only if this part is handled by fractionalizing an NFT linking to the original post on your custom blockchain
Lmao this is so good. I think it would actually work. Go forth and grift imo
okay what's with the showering thing? second reference I see to that now
Showered 37 times in 2022.
"I try not to disturb my natural skin microbiome too much"
("my bodily oils have come to terms with me, now it's your turn")
those numbers tell so, so, so many stories. and none of them are admirable.
You usually only see such aversion to showering in the Super Smash Bros. community.
@dgerard I’m probably missing something but what is it about these folk and Adderall? They can’t all have self-diagnosed ADHD.. (having an actual psychiatric diagnosis thereof means that I’m just a mean-spirited gatekeeper who thinks people shouldn’t just decide for themselves that they have a serious mental condition and start popping random pills)
this was discussed on here recently, scroll to the post for more
@froztbyte Oh, I missed that. So, boring people thinking they can make themselves less boring through pharmaceutical means. 15 years ago it was smart drugs (which weren’t, but that didn’t stop the Bay Area jumping onto that bandwagon with both feet).
Does she sell worn items of clothing to her thirsty fans by any chance? Because that sounds like a lede for that.
