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.]

Kelsey is doing increasingly obvious EA/TESCREAL propaganda pieces now (www.vox.com)

I don't particularly disagree with the piece, but it's striking how little effort is put in to make this resemble a news piece or a typical Vox explainer. It's just blatant editorializing ("Please do this thing I want") and very blatantly carrying water for the--some how non-discredited--EA movement priorities.

“If there’s an order for Ebola that’s being ordered by the CDC in Atlanta, that’s great,”

said no one sane, ever.

How about: "We have an installation in the CDC's BSL-4 laboratory where we print dangerous DNA on demand, and a second installation in their BSL-2 space where we print less-dangerous material. Nothing ever has to leave the building."

That would be something close to rational policy.
