Eliezer: "50-year-old scientists making up their own religions"
Silas: "In contrast to 30+ year-old rationalists justifying"
Eliezer is not yet 30. He'll turn thirty in a few days, though.
Clearly this is grounds for another Overcoming Bias Bay Area Meetup. Meetup! Meetup!
I didn't mean to refer to Eliezer_Yudkowsky. I just meant that if you put together a lot of the Newcomb and Simulation Argument theorizing, you get something quite similar to currently-existing religions.
