      I did it. I wrote 4,000 words about the Slate Star Codex article and put it on my heretofore dead Substack. I will almost certainly regret it for a million reasons, but I am a masochist, so here it is:https://mynewbandis.substack.com/p/slate-star-clusterfuck …

      The fact they sought out basically a random person on Twitter who was advertising dirt on SSC after the initial blowup tells me they probably were aiming to cause harm. Perhaps due to the initial blowup, but I don’t buy that part

      That is ... dumb. Reporters listen to all potential sources and determine who's credible and who isn't. And every source has an agenda--including the subject of the piece, who is also a source.

      This isn't really the view of the (completely random-ass mostly Doctor Who scholar) who got called in for a quote, and I think her logic is pretty solid.pic.twitter.com/Ssn0oL4yUN

      In what possible sense is Sandifer "random-ass" in the pejorative sense you're using that term and Scott himself is not

      In the sense that, if you deemed Scott worthy of writing about (perhaps you disagree, but they had already crossed that line), this individual strikes me as a pretty random person to include, beyond the scope of advertising dirt on Scott on Twitter.pic.twitter.com/CGJMkf2via

      She's studied the rationalist movement enough to write the only full-length critical book about them I'm aware of (Neoreaction: A Basilisk)

      You could say "It's self-published, why should I care about her opinion, however prolix, if academic and commercial gatekeepers don't" But then you'd have to ask the same thing about every single thing Scott, Eliezer, and most of their friends have written

          I don’t care about gatekeepers. My point is just that, if you were looking to do just an examination, a person who wrote a book on a kinda-sorta related phenomenon and was advertising dirt seems odd to go to. If you’re looking to do a hit piece, it makes perfect sensepic.twitter.com/EnRpO8JhOD

          Right, the definition of "a hit piece" is "one where some of the sources dislike Scott"
