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.]

For example, the inaugural Substack post defining effective accelerationisms’s “principles and tenets” name-drops the “Jarzynski-Crooks fluctuation dissipation theorem”
To echo a comment from old!SneerClub: That's not a thing. There are three separate but related ideas (the Crooks fluctuation theorem, the Jarzynski equality and the fluctuation-dissipation theorem) which the author doesn't know are separate, because he hasn't a clue what he's talking about.
got a link to it btw?
A link to what?
(The link in the Substack post is to the Wikipedia page for the Crooks result, disguising — intentionally or not — the fact that the writer is just smashing together science words.)
the apparently original e/acc post, i think i've seen it but can't find it
Seems like it's this: https://beff.substack.com/p/notes-on-eacc-principles-and-tenets
@earthquake @dgerard I just read some of this and it made me substantially stupider
It's important to stretch before reading their stuff. A good stretch is to find the latest fad and argue how it's an addiction.
Then, afterwards, you need to cool off and detox. I recommend some Quake, but finding a new favorite album also works.
quake is still fucking awesome and the remasters of 1 and 2 are great for an impromptu steam deck lan party
