(as for me, I read it because I woke up one hour before my alarm clock, spent half of that unsuccessfully trying to fall back asleep, didn't feel like getting up, and my phone was already on my nightstand)
The main issue with this is that the only people who will actually finish reading this are the ones who already agree with your points (or, at least, disagree with them for reasons other than not being familiar with them), and hence don't need to read this (except for the sake of reading fiction as leisure). Everybody else is going to stop reading a few paragraphs in.
By the way, I seem to remember a series of polls (on Twitter by Zvi, IIRC) about various scenarios asking the readers whether they'd consider them "doom", "bloom", "gloom" or something (one of them involved all currently living humans being allowed to live happy lives and die of old age but no more human babies being born). Can any of you remember where this was?
FWIW, TIL that the antifungal I'm taking is racemic

Some human languages have untranslatable 4, e.g. Latin https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/quotus
80% of those are things I semi-regularly do in my own prose, FWIW
For what it's worth, I'm a human and yet when I read the title of this before reading the post itself I guessed that "December" referred to December 2016 not December 2024 (and the post would be arguing that lame ducks can't actually be said to be still "serving" in some sense, or something like that).

Huh, apparently someone still understood enough of my comment to upvote it despite the automatic conversion from the original LW markdown source to the current HTML having been completely botched.

[ETA: Without following the link,] I have no idea whether you agree with them and "serious adults" is supposed to imply Eliezer isn't one, or you agree with Eliezer and mean "serious adults" sarcastically
