This is my article on one of the dumbest and most obviously false claims Yudkowsky has ever made, about biology not using covalent bonds.

    I’ve been looking through the replies in the crossposts. It illustrates your gullibility filter point completely.

    Also, if you need validation, you are a fantastic science communicator. You take research that isn’t accessible to me and present it in a form I can understand. You also provide enough disclaimers about gaps in your knowledge when you might be glossing over details while providing me with inroads to research those details themselves. You dispel fear and confusion stemming from the unknown while inspiring me to discover more.

    Yud doesn’t do any of those things and often does the opposite, but let’s forget about him for a moment. Good article!

      Thanks! I strive for accuracy, clarity, humility, and good faith. Aka, everything I learned not to do from reading the sequences.
