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.]

Taking bets on no correction from the NYT calling him an "academic".

Aside: the willingness of news, politicians, and the general public to listen to non-peer reviewed nonsense from (often) anonymous "scientists" is an awful trend. Besides this smear campaign it's also come up in anti-vax nonsense, election fraud conspiracies, and "reports" against transgender healthcare. It's like everyone still knows science is cool beans, but forgot what science is in the first place.
