- 7 weeks ago, I precommitted that censoring a post or comment on LessWrong would cause a 0.0001% increase in existential risk.
- Earlier today, Yudkowsky censored a post on less wrong
- 20 minutes later, existential risks increased 0.0001% (to the best of my estimation).
I actually prefer conversations to be public if possible. It doesn't really harm anyone and it helps understanding of long dead threads to see more discussion of them
Some conversations are more personal and wouldn't be appropriate if public.
