mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's the excuse du jour for the contemporaneous pothead. the gwern, the guy who "really believed in wikipedia", the guy who "really believed in ted talks" and "fucking loved sicence" and so on. the kid who is "investigating child pornizzerias in wash dc" via 4chan and "visual thinking"

mircea_popescu: oh and incidentally, definitely worth reading gwern.net ; that fellow is almost exactly the tmsr antichrist : haskellite as far as computing science goes ; consumate lesswrongian as long as theology goes ; tardpedia "inclusionist" as long as political philosophy goes. pretty much every mistaken, poisonous or outright wrong assumption "modern" "civilisation" makes, he makes. loudly, unapologetically, roundly.
