No idea. Prob best to check wikipedia for that. Could be last names, could be occupation, could be some denigrating term.

Also note the standard error that people make (Which Rationalists talk about but people also never seem to internalize) Scott is wise and knowledgeable, until we get to a thing DeBoer knows about, and then it suddenly is strange and out of place. But the wise and knowledgeable thing doesn't get revalued, which considering the complaint about Scott is a bit of a lack of selfawareness moment. Almost like something that looks like it is written in wise and knowledgeable and pleasing way doesn't have to be that. Anyway, sorry for the sidetrack we were talking about genAI and this is not relevant to that.
I was thinking about that in reaction to something else. Anytime somebody casually brings up chrischan (she has been a decades long stalking/harassement target) should have been a bit of a red flag.

Hey come now, it is a common Dutch last name. Don't slander Dutch people who are called boer (farmer) like that. Do it for the right reasons. We all suck, no matter our last names.
Anybody have the adresses of the lw people? I have some oil I want to sell them, has a very small chance of extending life.

She is a blight on the neighborhood, her exhaust gasses and waste production alone.
Ah thanks yes, forgot that, good catch.
Unrelated to protonmail, but related to getting the wrong guy for the job. The telegram CEO said that the cryptography of telegram was coded by his brother. (The CEO is also famously not a persona non grata in Russia which likely means the FSB has access to telegram (And if they have access, more people can have it))
Poor friendless guy. Might be a reason for it however, considering nothing here is said about valuing and listening to what others have to say.
Simple way of messing with the dumbest robot ignoring scrapers. Html bomb.
