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.]

LW: [Request]: Use "Epilogenics" instead of "Eugenics" in most circumstances - people just don't like the word itself yes that must be it. Coined by Aella. (www.lesswrong.com)

The sex research stuff reminds me of the time a bunch of my friends got their first introduction to Aella. Someone posted in the group chat one of her Buzzfeed personality quizzes masquerading as respectable sexuality/kink surveys where at the end it tells you what fictional character your sex life resembles. Aside from myself, only one of my friends in the group knew who Aella is and the one who did didn't realize it was her.

Anyway, if you want to make a good impression on a new group of people, maybe don't make a cute and kinky fun little sex survey that compares some of them to Jabba the Hutt.

Look, mate, that was science. Data science. Could come to no other conclusion, it's where the data leads. Source: sex research.
