+_ hate for secrecy probably correlates with autogynephilia blogging
+_ mention Said rigor check somewhere, nervousness about Michael's gang being a mini-egregore

_ elaborate on why I'm not leaking sensitive bits, by explaining what can be inferred by what was and wasn't said in public
_ footnote on "no one would even consider"

what's really weird is having a delusion, knowing it's a delusion, and _everyone else_ insists your delusion is true
... and I'm not allowed to say that without drawing on my diplomacy budget, which puts a permanent distance between me and the group
-you can't imagine contemporary Yudkowsky adhering to Crocker's rules (http://sl4.org/crocker.html)

Greg Egan's "Closer" (1992) predicted language models, and seemed wild at the time
The text of _Inadequate Equilibria_ is more modest than his rhetorical marketing blunder
