Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Seeing Cremieux Recueil will be there, does anyone know who's behind it, what's the deal with it, etc? I'm always seeing it pop up on these freaks' timelines and I imagine it's eugenics shit but I can never be bothered to dig enough to find the really incriminating stuff. It's well creepy though.
Aha! It turns out Cremieux is the r/slatestarcodex poster formerly known as /u/Tr--yPorn0 (slur dashed out), or TP0 for those who don't even want the slur in dashed-out form. A really persistent race scientist with a habit of (a) misrepresenting the papers he spammed as links (b) misrepresenting himself. He used to run a tiny blog as "Cremieux" when he was claiming to be an economist from Liechtenstein. Then he got pumped by the other race scientists. So I expect this to very much be Racist Fest.
some past hits from TP0:
his style is gish gallops and paywalled papers that turn out not to support his claims, and citing Emil Kirkegaard's pseudojournals a lot
Here's another good one: https://old.reddit.com/r/SneerClub/comments/12qbsfo/tpo_has_joined_twitter_been_tweeted_by_paul/
My favorite tp0 moment was when someone pointed out the identical twins in an adoption study he cited were barely separated, and tp0 blocked him and left the original chart using data from the study up.
