- TeMPOraL 12y agoI agree. I think I'm gonna order myself one, to continue the tradition of printing out things from Internet on t-shirts. My last one[0] gets quite a lot of questions from people.

- walterbell 12y agodo explain :) or point out the origin.
- TeMPOraL 12y agoIt's from this: http://slatestarcodex.com/2014/07/30/meditations-on-moloch/ http://slatestarcodex.com/2014/07/30/meditations-on-moloch/ Long but a very good read, and very relevant in the context of this discussion. The quote itself is a mix of a poem ("They broke their backs lifting Moloch to heaven") and Bostrom's last book ("lousy Disneyland with no children"). It refers to the scenario when our economy/incentives system automates away all humans and we're left with a glorious economical machine with no humans inside, running without a purpose - like a fully automated, self-sufficient Disneyland that is never visited by any children.
