      we start out by reviewing some of @esyudkowsky's early rationalist writings, and the transition of rationalism from a religion of the sequences to a religion of HPMOR, and how yud played the roles of paul and jesus and the ways in which he is incidentally like l ron hubbard

          that accomplished, we loop back to Alfred Korzybski, who more or less did everything that yudkoswki did, but two generations prior, and with a slightly different bent he was the origin of "the map is not the territory," incidentally

          we later covered Yud's more immediate intellectual roots in the Extropian community, and the manner in which he caused a Tofflerian schism in that transhumanist group and one instance in which @slatestarcodex is shown to be more discerning than was Korzybski

          this podcast was a wild fucking ride. massive props to @jd_pressman for the enormous amount of work he put into this--my major contribution was occasionally making jokes and responding with appropriate amazement

          while afaik I am still blocked by Yud, I hope he takes the occasional ribbings in this podcast in good humor (they are so intended), and deployed in the context of them as "here is how you are like a major intellectual figure of the 20th century"

          finally: you can listen to the Dead Authors Podcast about L. Ron Hubbard at the below links (two parts) and you should probably do that first because it's incredible and ALSO covers a hell of a lot of 20C intellectual history https://thedeadauthorspodcast.libsyn.com/chapter-45-part-1-l-ron-hubbard-featuring-andrew-daly … https://thedeadauthorspodcast.libsyn.com/chapter-45-part-2-l-ron-hubbard-featuring-andy-daly …

          I have a new post out: "100 Years Of Existential Risk". It's kind of like a cleaned up version of my podcast with @eigenrobot, but with much more detail. I trace the birth of existential risk during World War I and its development to the present. https://www.wrestlinggnon.com/extropy/2021/09/26/100-years-of-existential-risk.html … pic.twitter.com/ztOeoigWIf

          i need to listen to this to update on my suspicion that yudkowsky's ideas are a lot better than lesswrong's as a whole
