Saying Goodbye

I was personally acquainted with Avraham Eisenberg via EA, who is now convicted of fraud. I work in crypto and it would be genuinely difficult for me to find a professional contact who isn't familiar with what he did, it was that high profile.

I'm not sure if you would or should consider "ampdot" prominent, as far as I understand they have received EA funding for AI research, but I could definitely be wrong about that. They did a lot of memecoin promotion, as did their social circle. I'm not sure if they consider themselves an EA or just a rationalist.

In total I know of about 6? rationalist/EAs who ran memecoin pump and dumps, but would not call them prominent.

I don't think sapph is trying to use these examples as persuasive evidence.

Not sure what you're on, but "You might listen to an idiot doctor that puts you on spiro" is definitely a real transition downside

Sam Altman's sister claims Sam sexually abused her -- Part 1: Introduction, outline, author's notes

However, Annie has not yet provided what I would consider direct / indisputable proof that her claims are true. Thus, rationally, I must consider Sam Altman innocent.

This is an interesting view on rationality that I hadn't considered

Augur was a total failboat. Almost all of these projects couple the market protocol to the resolution protocol, which is stupid, especially if you are Augur and your ideas about making resolution protocols are really dumb.

Your understanding is correct. I built one which is currently offline, I'll be in touch soon.
