Pretty good overall, but downvoted due to the inflammatory straw-manning of the physics diet. That kind of sloppy thinking just makes me think you have big blind-spots in your rationality. Maybe it’s wrong, but it really has nothing to do with virtue or should-universes. To suggest otherwise is dishonest and rude. I usually don’t care about rude, but this pissed me off.
I have to admit it seemed entirely the wrong place for Eliezer to be dragging up his health issues. I find it really hard to keep reading a post once it starts throwing out petulant straw men. It’s a shame because causality and inference is something Eliezer does probably knows something about.
