Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

His Wikipedia article is quite a ride. Apparently he and a Stephen Chamberlain were recently found innocent for a bunch of fraud charges. They boil down to inflating the value of a SW company he sold to Hewlett-Packart. They died within a day of each other in unrelated accidents. Must be rough.

Damn, HP doesn't mess around. I'm going to stop trashing them around the office.

Right? Didn't even get caught hiring assassins, unlike those Boeing clowns. Just a weird coincidence, haha!

Given that his codefendant was hit and killed by a car three days after the acquittal, I'm not sure if they even hired assassins or if they have some kind of black magicians on staff.
