Quick update: Last week I’d asked Ben if we could chat privately rather than continue hashing things out in public. We finally got to do that tonight, which I think went productively. I’m sorry that this took a long time and that I didn’t communicate well about it (to either Duncan or Habryka, who I think might have made different decisions if he hadn’t been assuming I’d touched base about it. Habryka wrote more detailed thoughts on why it’s taken us a while to close the loop on this here, with some thoughts on how we can improve in the near and longer term).
Tomorrow I’ll be writing up more detailed thoughts on where and why I think several of Benquo’s comments break important norms, without which I think LessWrong would fail as a discussion platform.
