[“Signaling”] is standard terminology for a rather important concept and a and it would be hard to discuss most of the interesting subjects on lesswrong without it.
I’ll concede that point; I haven’t been on Less Wrong much at all in the past year or so, so I wouldn’t relaly know.
I don’t believe you. If there was a site-wide substitution :s/affect/emotion/ then many usages would either outright stop making sense or at very least mean something different to what they once did. Including whole swathes of the sequences.
You’re probably right, but I can’t actually think of any examples of this (apart from the phrase “affect heuristic”). I would be interested in learning of one.
