"There is no place for little minds in a great work."
"(I put the actual odds of an AGI in my lifetime at 80%, and now I'm forced to put this here instead of answering the question.

Also, my estimate for aliens was just for life somewhere not-earth-originating. My estimated odds of INTELLIGENT life would be much, much lower. )"
/r/ssc isn't at all the same thing as /r/slatestarcoex. Seriously look it up. /r/ssc stands for something entirely different it's a college that just happens to share the same initials

10/10 would share for the entertainment but nobody in the places I'd share this would actually appreciate it

All hail queerbees as top mod
All is vanity; there is nothing new under the sun

Anything that can be destroyed by a sneer should be
As it happens, yes. But not with you. You'd only waste them.
"As we go marching, marching
In the beauty of the day
A million darkened kitchens
A thousand mill-lofts grey
Are touched with all the radiance
That a sudden sun discloses
For the people hear us singing
Bread and roses, bread and roses"
billionaires should all be hanged
Blargh
Budgie!
Bully me
Can I still call things retarded?  Not mentally handicapped people obviously, just things that are retarded.

congrats on shutting down the culture war thread, lord soros sends his regards
Discovering SneerClub was the worst decision I made in the last two years.
Eh
Ending wild animal suffering is the stupidest cause I’ve ever heard of.
For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are perishing-you who dread knowledge-I am the man who will now tell you. You have heard it said that this is an age of moral crisis. You have said it yourself, half in fear, half in hope that the words had no meaning. You have cried that man's sins are destroying the world and you have cursed human nature for its unwillingness to practice the virtues you demanded. Since virtue, to you, consists of sacrifice, you have demanded more sacrifices at every successive disaster. In the name of a return to morality, you have sacrificed all those evils which you held as the cause of your plight. You have sacrificed justice to mercy. You have sacrificed independence to unity. You have sacrificed reason to faith. You have sacrificed wealth to need. You have sacrificed self-esteem to self-denial. You have sacrificed happiness to duty. You have destroyed all that which you held to be evil and achieved all that which you held to be good. Why, then, do you shrink in horror from the sight of the world around you? That world is not the product of your sins, it is the product and the image of your virtues. It is your moral ideal brought into reality in its full and final perfection. You have fought for it, you have dreamed of it, and you have wished it, and I-I am the man who has granted you your wish. Your ideal had an implacable enemy, which your code of morality was designed to destroy. I have withdrawn that enemy. I have taken it out of your way and out of your reach. I have removed the source of all those evils you were sacrificing one by one. I have ended your battle. I have stopped your motor. I have deprived your world of man's mind. Men do not live by the mind, you say? I have withdrawn those who do. The mind is impotent, you say? I have withdrawn those whose mind isn't. There are values higher than the mind, you say? I have withdrawn those for whom there aren't. While you were dragging to your sacrificial altars the men of justice, of independence, of reason, of wealth, of self-esteem-I beat you to it, I reached them first. I told them the nature of the game you were playing and the nature of that moral code of yours, which they had been too innocently generous to grasp. I showed them the way to live by another morality-mine. It is mine that they chose to follow. All the men who have vanished, the men you hated, yet dreaded to lose, it is I who have taken them away from you. Do not attempt to find us. We do not choose to be found. Do not cry that it is our duty to serve you. We do not recognize such duty. Do not cry that you need us. We do not consider need a claim. Do not cry that you own us. You don't. Do not beg us to return. We are on strike, we, the men of the mind. We are on strike against self-immolation. We are on strike against the creed of unearned rewards and unrewarded duties. We are on strike against the dogma that the pursuit of one's happiness is evil. We are on strike against the doctrine that life is guilt. There is a difference between our strike and all those you've practiced for centuries: our strike consists, not of making demands, but of granting them. We are evil, according to your morality. We have chosen not to harm you any longer. We are useless, according to your economics. We have chosen not to exploit you any longer. We are dangerous and to be shackled, according to your politics. We have chosen not to endanger you, nor to wear the shackles any longer. We are only an illusion, according to your philosophy. We have chosen not to blind you any longer and have left you free to face reality-the reality you wanted, the world as you see it now, a world without mind. We have granted you everything you demanded of us, we who had always been the givers, but have only now understood it. We have no demands to present to you, no terms to bargain about, no compromise to reach. You have nothing to offer us. We do not need you. Are you now crying: No, this was not what you wanted? A mindless world of ruins was not your goal? You did not want us to leave you? You moral cannibals, I know that you've always known what it was that you wanted. But your game is up, because now we know it, too. Through centuries of scourges and disasters, brought about by your code of morality, you have cried that your code had been broken, that the scourges were punishment for breaking it, that men were too weak and too selfish to spill all the blood it required. You damned man, you damned existence, you damned this earth, but never dared to question your code. Your victims took the blame and struggled on, with your curses as reward for their martyrdom-while you went on crying that your code was noble, but human nature was not good enough to practice it. And no one rose to ask the question: Good?-by what standard? You wanted to know John Galt's identity. I am the man who has asked that question. Yes, this is an age of moral crisis. Yes, you are bearing punishment for your evil. But it is not man who is now on trial and it is not human nature that will take the blame. It is your moral code that's through, this time. Your moral code has reached its climax, the blind alley at the end of its course. And if you wish to go on living, what you now need is not to return to morality-you who have never known any-but to discover it. For centuries, the battle of morality was fought between those who claimed that your life belongs to God and those who claimed that it belongs to your neighbors-between those who preached that the good is self-sacrifice for the sake of ghosts in heaven and those who preached that the good is self-sacrifice for the sake of incompetents on earth. And no one came to say that your life belongs to you and that the good is to live it. You have heard no concepts of morality but the mystical or the social. You have been taught that morality is a code of behavior imposed on you by whim, the whim of a supernatural power or the whim of society, to serve God's purpose or your neighbor's welfare, to please an authority beyond the grave or else next door-but not to serve your life or pleasure. Your pleasure, you have been taught, is to be found in immorality, your interests would best be served by evil, and any moral code must be designed not for you, but against you, not to further your life, but to drain it. Both sides agreed that morality demands the surrender of your self-interest and of your mind, that the moral and the practical are opposites, that morality is not the province of reason, but the province of faith and force. Both sides agreed that no rational morality is possible, that there is no right or wrong in reason-that in reason there's no reason to be moral. Whatever else they fought about, it was against man's mind that all your moralists have stood united. It was man's mind that all their schemes and systems were intended to despoil and destroy. Now choose to perish or to learn that the anti-mind is the anti-life.
Forgive me Basilisk for I have sinned
fuck you for making me do research on a sneervey
go fuck yourself
Good joke on the AI prob one :)
Google Forms is boring and ugly
Great sneer
Half of this survey was basically masturbation, 8/10.
Have a nice day.
have fun out there
Hello
I am really grateful.
I can't think
I consider AGI to be possible but human endeavours to be nowhere near success, and narrow AI is more of a threat anyway.
i deeply resent that you didn't let me answer the artificial intelligence question with the sex number
I demand a SneerClub meetup
I did it for the wild
i don't regularly participate on the sub i mostly lurk but i like the content
I don’t know some of the questions being asked
I hate you guys but there's nothing better around.
I hate you more than the SSC edgelords.
i have big yud nudes
I hope I pass!
i liek irony
I liked Ike
I love Chinese food
"I love sneers club
 But focus on quality sneers please
Picking on the ssc horde is shooting fish in a barrel at this point"
I love you all, post-ironically
I luv sneercluuuuuuub
I regularly use modafinil . I wish I had a girlfriend.
i shidded and farded and cummed in my pants
I shouldn't eat so much chocolate, but it's so good.
I spend thirty minutes a week at most reading this subreddit and rarely comment. Do the rationalists who think sneer-membership equals "evil" not realise that you can participate in something that interests you without making it a total cult?
I still like the rationalists, I just find Sneerclub is better at keeping them honest than other SSC/LW posters are.
I'm a lurker, out of the loop.
I'm heating up a pizza rn i'm pretty hungry
I'm new and I love this place
I'm not very thoughtful
I'm too old for this shit
in sneer we trust
Include me in the screenshot
Is anyone else kinda lowkey terrified at AI risk, but not Basilisk stuff, just the government locking you up because face recognition algorithms said you would be a risk to society
"it is literally unknowable whether the many worlds interpretation of QM is true! it can't be assigned a numerical priority.

clever w the ""Too high!"" on the AGI question for all inputs above 0 tho"
Jesus is the reason for the season.
jfk deserved to die
Keep sneering the good sneers

People who think saying you enjoy Finnegan's Wake has to be status-signalling really missed the point of their Amazon vacation to try Ayahuasca
Pip pip sneerio
poptart is a dick but he's better than internet rationalists
poptart is a tedious dumbass who brags about his iq unironically please get rid of him thanks
Probably.
rationalists spend all their time reinventing the wheel and then congratulating themselves for making it racist
Read "On Smarm"
RIP CW THREAD 2019
Robin is a creep like in real life too
Robot cult o robot cult, everybody dies...
Scott Alexander is a dark SOB, fuck that guy.
shame this isn't a serious survey

Sneeer
Sneer club gives me strength when all the rationalists are being absolutely bonkers and abusive and awful. You guys are great. Never change. <3 <3 <3
Sneerblime
Sneerclub is lovely but it also would have been fine if I just never heard of any of this shit
Sneerclub sucks donkey balls
SneerClub sucks.
Sneerkanda Forever!
Something about how you're inevitably going to mis-apply Bayesian analysis to this data
Starlight Glimmer is best pony

tax the rich
Tell my wife I love her and I’d like to smoke one last cigarette before they march me to the wall
Thank god for r/sneerclub, the wind beneath my wings.
Thank u
thank u, no

Thanks!
The Bartleby movie got panned critically, but it's good
The Culture War Thread is dead, long live the Culture War Thread
The left can't meme
The only thing that sucks more than Slate Star Codex is people who like it
They're fascinating to observe
This has been great comedy, comrade
This survey is great, perfect 5/7
this was a pretty good distraction while I waited for my lunch to refrigerate
This was too long
Up yours
watch ARIA
We had fun and that's what matters
We're on track to the most boring dystopia
What's the probability big Yud ever climbs out of his own ass? 0.
When i want to annoy LW-style rationalists, i agree with them that any being with an alien set of values and power (what they would call intelligence) greater than humans can, when unrestrained, easily and convert the entire world into a dystopia and this is why we need to stop any and all such beings from being created. Then i argue that they are already too late, for apocalypse they fear has already been started. The world has already been taken over by these amoral entities called corporations, and there is naught to do but to fight them in every way we can. Workers of all nations unite! You have nothing to lose but your chains!
why aren’t more surveys fun?
Why share when I could sneer?
Yes
Yes
Yes but not with you lol
Yes, but I don't think /r/sneerclub has the IQ to understand them.
Yes, did you know that Go-Gurt is *just* yoghurt?
you could make a fortune selling rationalist branded sticky notes to these folks
You guys are great  <3
you realise, of course, that this survey increases existential risk
Your stats are going to be whack, yo
我爱你, mods
