The Culture and Function of the X Button
I sez to the Monarch, I sez to him: Voting buttons are gay and Reddit, they don't belong on something in the lineage of chan culture. And he simply loves his demos too much, wants to give them power and freedom in shaping the culture. Many a king toppled f... posted 3mo ago with 17 replies received

Between LessWrong, the place with strictly enforced decorum rules, and 4chan, the place where bad-faith discussion is the norm, which site produced more healthy family men per capita? Despite picking from a similar pool of high IQ men, the answer is clearl... 3mo ago received

I would encourage a trial run of this. We've all been trained to hunt for likes and high grades, I think it's much more freeing to not have these visible. The empirical change on voting patterns would also be interesting, I'd expect you'd get better signal... 3mo ago received

in thread "The Sofiechan Index Page Question":

The most useful feature for me would be to jump back into a thread from the last post that I read, plus a count of the number of replies that have happened since I last opened the thread. I only use the previews of the post as a way to jump to the end of t... 5mo ago received

The most useful feat received

It's not so bad just for a button that lets me jump to last read, just (user_id, thread_id, last_read_post_id), update row w/ last post id when I open thread_id, join thread_id w/ last_read on index. Calculating number of posts since that id is a little mo... 5mo ago received

in thread "Capitalism is AI ?":

Assume no singletons, thus many actors. The flow of energy through a system organizes the system and actors are embedded in a web of other actors. Then: what is the stability of the maximum extropy strategy? 6mo ago received

Assume no singletons received

Yes, that sounds right. A singleton maximizing extropy is stable. Many actors maximizing entropy is not: you end up in a catabolic collapse as the actor's environment is eaten for the (temporary) sake of the actor. Arguably this describes our current descr... 6mo ago received

in thread ""Forum software blew a 4000x lead with poor UX" - Simon Sarris":

A rare miss for Mr. Sarris. Forums died because every single major Internet platform optimized for ad impressions as they onboarded the entire world, and as a consequence jingling keys and evoking snap emotional responses became the norm for communication.... 8mo ago received

Given the claim is indeed about an esoteric system it's self-defeating to require a feat of exotericism from Liebniz. There is perhaps too much meat in >>2665 but it's worth actually examining. I found "Scale-Invariance of Grammar in Foundations of Mathema... 10mo ago received
