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.]

This is quite a grandiose plan for someone writing a LessWrong blog post. And there’s a decent chance it won’t work out for either technical reasons or because I can't find the resources and talent to help me solve all the technical challenges.

The phrase "technical reasons" is doing an absolutely majestic amount of work in this sentence.

don't forget the bit where anyone who thinks this idea leads to racist stupidity just hates science

Looking forward to LW articles with titles like "Ashkenazification via engineered viruses as a solution for African poverty: here's why it might work"

LWers love Ashkenazi so much they'll happily have some even without the Ashke.

If only he were neither constrained by technical hurdles or resources, dang.
