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.]

What I should have written is that I believe Alexander is a person who wants to give the impression that sexuality doesn't define him. His is a life of the mind, after all.
Fair enough, my effort post was more about how the anhedonic remark and how I didn't find proof in the past (but kept it in mind) and that I found proof he talked about his asexuality btw. (I either didn't look hard in the past or forgot I found the proof before already).
Don't apologize, I was talking out of my ass.
Maybe the 2 Scotts represent the 2 poles of TREACLES sexuality - on the one hand, the effortless "I'm too sexy for my shirt, all the girls want me, but I will not give in to the pleasures of the flesh", on the other the seething resentment that hot girls are denied them. I dunno, this has led to me thinking way too much about the sex lives of 2 people I really cannot stand.[1]
[1] that said, I'm pretty sure Aaronson would at least try to be a good dad. But maybe I'm being too generous.
"polarity of TREACLES sexuality" is an infohazard, damn you :P
More closeted then ace from what I’ve been tood - but thats common in this scene.
