No idea. Prob best to check wikipedia for that. Could be last names, could be occupation, could be some denigrating term.

Also note the standard error that people make (Which Rationalists talk about but people also never seem to internalize) Scott is wise and knowledgeable, until we get to a thing DeBoer knows about, and then it suddenly is strange and out of place. But the wise and knowledgeable thing doesn't get revalued, which considering the complaint about Scott is a bit of a lack of selfawareness moment. Almost like something that looks like it is written in wise and knowledgeable and pleasing way doesn't have to be that. Anyway, sorry for the sidetrack we were talking about genAI and this is not relevant to that.

I was thinking about that in reaction to something else. Anytime somebody casually brings up chrischan (she has been a decades long stalking/harassement target) should have been a bit of a red flag.

(E: not blaming people for missing that btw, it just stood out to me).

Hey come now, it is a common Dutch last name. Don't slander Dutch people who are called boer (farmer) like that. Do it for the right reasons. We all suck, no matter our last names.

Anybody have the adresses of the lw people? I have some oil I want to sell them, has a very small chance of extending life.

Looks at draco, looks at ron. Wtf.

She is a blight on the neighborhood, her exhaust gasses and waste production alone.

Ah thanks yes, forgot that, good catch.

Unrelated to protonmail, but related to getting the wrong guy for the job. The telegram CEO said that the cryptography of telegram was coded by his brother. (The CEO is also famously not a persona non grata in Russia which likely means the FSB has access to telegram (And if they have access, more people can have it))

Poor friendless guy. Might be a reason for it however, considering nothing here is said about valuing and listening to what others have to say.

But even then, they control the 'time it takes for an engineer to do it' variable anyway. Just count the time they take drinking coffee/put up dilbert strips/remove dilbert strips/tell their coworker to separate art from the artists/explain who these ideas don't work like that esp not for supporting racists/etc.

(E: Scott is still alive, just checked, and turns out he now is no hormone blockers, and not assisted suicide because he did eventually decide to take the normal treatment for his kind of cancer T blockers, he might have actually not went on this bog standard treatment initially because ... he did his own research. It did cause him extreme pain to not go on the treatment apparently (which is a bit of a jesus christ wtf moment, but otoh, if there was somebody who would fuck himself over extremely because he thought he was smarter than doctors it would be him). (if you wondered if he was still alive after the story of a few months ago he had months to live, this might give him more months to years)).

Made up yes, but I wonder if it arbitrary, or some p-hacking equivalent.
