Well done. Roryokane mentioned it up here however.

I wonder what Eliezer would DO if he actually got $5 for flimple utility. I kinda want to try sending him five bucks as a psychology experiment.

Done. It's not really a sacrifice since I already donate to the SIAI. I will miss that 5 karma though.

Edit: Apparently you only get the -5 karma if you directly reply to a downvoted comment/post. Replying to reply is fine.

What? I don't understand. Did you give him 5$ or 5 karma or what?

Yeah I gave him $5.

Okay, well, I guess he doesn't know.
