mircea_popescu: that bad things happen to good people shouldnt persuade them to tear down society and try starting all over again, because that leads to the chaos/tyrant choice, and we cant go there."
mircea_popescu: "So Peterson wants to ensure we dont get to the point where thats the only choice left; he advises his acolytes not to destroy society (which leads to the chaos/authoritarian dilemma), but to recognize that theyre going to choose to follow some order of some kind, and that they should therefore intentionally follow even a flawed societal order, because its better than gas chambers and ethnic cleansing. The reality
mircea_popescu: it's fundamentally wrong, ideologically offensive, practically useless at best and counterproductive in general, deeply myopic, utterly nonsensical and the list could go on. holy shit why even bother exist if you're going to be the guy that spewed it.

mircea_popescu: ah so basically you didn't ~include~ the command list.
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, /me joins #lesswrong. there's a "* Loaded log from Sat Sep 20 11:53:02 2014" ; then /me joins #startups. there's a "Loaded log from Sat Sep 20 11:52:17 2014". apparently... i did this once before ?

mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes cash or bonds, though for the latter no actual discount was discussed in teh nsa boardroom. but i guess i'll go with .4 off the cuff and hope nobody throws gavels at me.

mircea_popescu: i suppose the question of lisp standardization, soon to be visited upon our fair republic, will be one helluva burning flame.
