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.]

Charles, in addition to being a great fiction author, is also an occasion guest here on awful.systems. This is a great article from him, but I'm pretty sure it's done the rounds already. Not that I'm complaining, given how much these guys bitch about science fiction and adjacent subjects.

Ah, my apologies, I must've missed that.

Don't think he was that active here recently, iirc he is working on more books, and had some health issues recently. Not sure how much he just randomly drops in or actively keeps up. If you still have an rss reading adding his blog to your list might be interesting.

Ah, had not noticed he posted, I'm not a stalker (and hope I don't give off those vibes). Do follow him in a few places.
