Wouldn't call it viable yet, but I had a stupid grin at the notion of "unintentional self-trolling" (compare with the earlier self-joke discussions that I had no emo-reaction to) Fucking hell la HN!! -takes PG's "unintentional moderates"/Nietzsche's cold-shower to a whole new [tragi-comic] level? -the unexpected dvote from PH or his loyalists felt like I'd unintentionally self-trolled myself (There might be an upvote that I haven't accounted for..) Upcoming fencing chengyu? U: re: my best take on why the hypothetical JHC (compare w Hillel/Mahatma) wasn't on the spectrum-- however he might have been "enby" like PH says just one of a torrent of mud here, tho this particular take could point us to the hidden gold? https://archive.ph/2026.01.17-044156/https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/bRGbdG58cJ8RGjS5G/no-really-why-aren-t-rationalists-winning#:~:text=My%20hot%20take%20response%20to%20OP%20is%20that%20the%20general%20question%20should%20be%20how%20well%20teams%20of%20rationalists%20are%20doing%20at%20their%20actual%20goals%2C%20not%20whether%20they%20seem%20superficially%20successful%20on%20common%2C%20easy%20to%20measure%20metrics%20(i.e.%20lotsa%20money%20and%20popularity). https://archive.ph/2026.01.17-044156/https://www.lesswrong.c...

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAOQupkftW8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAOQupkftW8 U3: looks pretty rationalist to me so far. (otoh our proles recently voted for a 13th old age pension without first demanding an accounting of from where it would be paid) I especially like how the referendum process allows decoupling recognition of problems from attempts at their solution. Certainly being a small country (pace Tito?) helps avoid the temptation of monumentalism. see also https://www.worldvaluessurvey.org/wvsimages/Cultural_Map_2023.png https://www.worldvaluessurvey.org/wvsimages/Cultural_Map_202... IKEA: IK was Kamprad, who is EA? (aha, not who but what: Elmtaryd Agunnaryd) Unix pipelines treat everything as a monoid of bytes; what if we could deal with (loopable) quantales of bytes instead? U: First win, then score

    Chengyu battle now? Noob score-win soup! Selftroll win-nolose! (Edited) (Ah yes dunno why I went for "Texan", not that I am even half-good at desouping the 2) I was just thinking a few hours ago, that baby seems to be squalling for "quantales". Have you ever asked an LLM about it? I have (in relation to what I've been thinking hard about).. Did you find the answer useful? it's good I don't remember what it said, because it seems to be too adult (in name, if not concept), & I don't feel like I've ever made such a kid of myself. I did algolia what you've written about it so far (2 hrs ago?). Hows the Kleene implementation? It should actually be immediately useful to me!! (And... You win!!) The introduction of the cipher 0 or the group concept was general nonsense, too, and for a thousand years or two mathematics was more or less stagnating, because nobody was around to make such childish steps . . . --Letter to R. Brown PS: Ah but the whole point might be that rationalism don't need no inner party? (And, in CH, such decoupling falls out of a hat, there's no need for further "design work" on the process (in principle?)-- Thus.. is it really the kind of decoupling i thought I was talking about? It seems to be! But I can't ELI5! (Sincere question)) U: chart is flattering^W enlightening, quite. yep I saw that vid ~ march? last year
