Wasn't hoon mentioned in the now-deceased Less-Wrong thread? I'm trying to remember if it was the "XML, but designed by a person fully in the grip of schizophrenia", or if that was one of the other poorly-conceived jargonfest "languages".

Technically speaking, it really doesn't matter if 1 is true and 0 is false so long as the entire system operates on the same paradigm or has an interface for the non-compliant portions. Of course, 1 equals true and 0 equals false is something of an industry standard, so there better be some sort of verifiable benefit from this departure or it's just some pointless tomfoolery.

Tiggum posted:I don't think the CGP Grey video is supposed to be teaching science. It's just a simple analogy for an interesting idea. That's pretty much what I took it for but because it's been published on the internet, it's almost guaranteed that some people will insist that it must be 100% true.

BravestOfTheLamps posted:The leader of the Rabid Puppies is a TvTroper apparently Given the incredibly generic contents of most sci-fi and fantasy novels, I'd believe it. The thing that strikes me as most appalling about the whole ordeal isn't that some guy is upset about skeletons and their treating people with respect, it's that he views turning something he likes a whole lot into a flaming shitpile instead of sharing it with 'people who have the temerity to write about things that he doesn't like' as a net win for 'his team'. I don't think it's the skeletons who have embraced 'scorched earth tactics' here.

Klaus88 posted:What is he ranting about in relation to Brahmin? All goggle is turning up is a line of hand bags and fallout New Vegas articles. It's about the old Hindu caste system in India. Wikipedia posted:Varna is a Sanskrit word which means colour or class. Ancient Hindu literature classified all humankind, and all created beings, in principle into four varnas: So his line means something like "I thought I was a (high status) going to a (high status) school, but holding onto beliefs of (middle status) made them treat me as a (untouchable status), and they forced me out after a semester." Which comes off as a nonsensical application of an extinct social ordering system to obscure his point behind a bunch of "smart" words. DarklyDreaming posted:he's arguing it's that white men aren't actually at the top of America because he can still be socially ostracized for being racist. Bingo. Well, he could be arguing that people percieve his beliefs to be racist (on par with the KKK according to him) but they're wrong because "I don't explicitly use racial slurs!".

Merdifex posted:Capitalism is bad because it treats people as disposable, unlike feudalism. The peasantry aren't considered people in the same way as the landed gentry or the free-men, so this statement is correct from the perspective of people who would style themselves as the ruling elite.

Strudel Man posted:Almost pointless to even ban somebody, then. Twitter doesn't like threats of actual violence, they gave disreputable floor-making GBS threads pooplord Chuck C. Johnson an "permanent suspension" and have suspended any and all accounts he's touched. Plus there's the whole "New accounts created to replace suspended accounts will be suspended.” rule, but I'm not sure how long it'll take Twitter to suspend any parachutes Anissimov uses.

Strudel Man posted:Eugenics, particularly in the United States, was intimately connected to crime prevention. I was going to riff on the usage of "morals" instead of "ethics" squarely dating your excerpt as 18th century pseudosociology, but then I remembered there are still people who write about "morals" in the context of a culture or society being "moral".

Strudel Man posted:I don't really see what's inappropriate about the term. Morals are irrelevant in establishing effective policy because morality is a set of personal beliefs. Your quote is asking an irrelevant or meaningless question; social structures such as "the economy" cannot be "moral" because are not individual persons and as such cannot hold a belief.

Woolie Wool posted:That article about Nick Land makes me want to ask him why people shouldn't support the Cathedral since, if you actually follow his worldview to its logical conclusion, it's in the self-interest of 99% of humanity to support it, stand by it, and defend it to the death. (presupposing that any of it is true, which it is not) It's irrational because Land argues that it can't be stopped, no matter what, so we should just try to burn as brightly as possible in our dying moments when the machines finally replace us. It's nihilistic accelerationism, with a singularitian twist!

So what exactly is "Kafkatrapping"? I've seen it mentioned a few places and there's not really any good definition of what exactly it is. Even from the blog that apparently coined the phrase.
