Is it not a joke? I’m pretty sure it was.
- alphan0n 1y agoIf that was a joke, all of it is. *Guess I’m a rationalist now.
- lcnPylGDnU4H9OF 1y agoIt doesn’t really read like a joke but maybe. Regardless, I guess I can at least be another voice saying it didn’t land. It reads like someone literally said that to him verbatim and he literally replied with a simple, “Yes.” (That said, while it seems charitable to assume it was a joke but that doesn’t mean it’s wrong to assume that.)
- geysersam 1y agoI'm certain it's a joke. Have you seen any Scott Aaronson lecture? He can't help himself from joking in every other sentence
- myko 1y agoI laughed, definitely read that way to me
- IshKebab 1y agoI think the fact that we aren't sure says a lot!
