AI turned out to be too hard, let's try aligning microbes.

A moment of silence for the people of Honduras, who have to live with these weirdos.

Christ, Próspera is another planned city? What is it with these maniacs and planning ideologies that went out of fashion in the thirties?

In before NY times article prints her real name complete with hissie fit followed by transition to Substack and total abandonment of mask of deniability.

Watch me bring them something unnecessarily overcomplicated that boosts their ego to win all of the money.

A micropayment platform designed to integrate with long form textual content. The subscribers will be able to vote with their wallets on the topic they wish the CONTENT_CREATOR to cover.

But there's a game theoretic twist. The final price of each vote will be discounted based on the share of votes it received, so if you vote for the winning option, your votes will end up costing less. This encourages strategic voting based on what would be the most interesting topic to the largest share of subscribers, incentivizing subscribers to maximize for total utility instead of just their own interests.

Additionally, below a certain threshold of share the votes will be free of charge. This is to encourage heterodox views and foster engagement with unconventional interests that would otherwise be risky to vote for.

The cutoff for the free Complimentary Contrarian's Votes will be determined by a prediction market running in parallel with the vote.

The winning votes will become investments into the post, binding the CONTENT_EXCRECATOR to CREATE_THE_CONTENT and based on some configurable metric (post score, ad revenue etc.) the investment will accrue dividends, which the subscriber can cash out to a charitable organization. However, this can only be done once per publication per subscriber, meaning the subscriber should wait for the investment to accumulate before cashing in. A global high score will show the subscribers who have cashed in the largest amount in donations and their voting power will be increased in proportion to their score.

I want 15% equity and a public live stream session of the AI box game with Yud where I roleplay as the shittalking French knight from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

okay what's with the showering thing? second reference I see to that now

Think the issue here is more that it is run by Rationalists, and they ask 20k for it. (and all the other biotech things they want to do bypassing the FDA, like isn't that also a NRx thing, he asked rhetorically).

Buried in the google drive is a note that this does not remove the need for brushing teeth, but it just notes that not doing that will give you bad breath.

In fact I believe that this is the true cause of this not being a product - people will still need to brush their teeth for other reasons than preventing cavities. If brushing teeth correctly currently lessens the risk of both caries and periodontal disease, having a shot that removes the risk of caries could conceivably mean less conscientious tooth care, which increases the risk of gum problems.
