not really joking! I think in practice you have to prioritize either Rationalists Should Win or Have True Beliefs. RSW now align as meta/post, HTB align as rat

are you asking if i understand whether what you said is a joke or are you asking whether what i am saying is a joke lol
if the latter i'm being completely serious, having true beliefs and winning should be synergistic, *if* you aren't fixated on a specific notion of "winning"
"winning on your terms, according to your values as you understand them" kind of thing

ok they definitely shouldn't be in conflict in theory
but like, some rats went deep into feelings land and some did not. and for some reason I feel like there would be a correlation between which group you are in and how you rank RSW v HTB
I am probay wrong
