I agree with far less than that! Probably on the order of 95%. That's higher than with most authors but I suspect lower than with, say, Yvain. Mind you Eliezer covers more controversial and original subjects than Yvain so I should expect Yvain to be more reliably correct than Eliezer. (Where from my perspective correctness cannot be distinguished from what I, all things including humility considered, agree with.)
Certainly. Enough so that 'even [me]' has less meaning when applied to myself than perhaps most people who have read all his posts multiple times. I'm also rather more free with publicly disagreeing with Eliezer (or anyone) than some others who may have specific disagreements with him. You often experience that as 'asshole talk'. And quite rightly so. (Publicly) disagreeing with people is almost always instrumentally irrational.
