He writes Overcoming Bias. Is rather cynical, predicts future involving (i think) libertarianism and stuff that sounds morally bad to present day sensibilities.

Had a gaffe a while ago where he ignored mental trauma related to bodily autonomy, expressed confusion about rape being considered worse than cuckoldry.

On the right hand side of LessWrong, if you scroll down you see Overcoming Bias mentioned as sister site.

More importantly, it's where EY started blogging when he was sponsored by the Future of Humanity Institute in Oxford (he moved here after finishing the first few sequences).

Where "first few" means "Basically all of them". There are a few later additions but the bulk (from when he was writing a post a day or somesuch) was all OvercomingBias.

Note: it is meant that he moved to LessWrong from Overcoming Bias, not that he moved to the States from Oxford. :)
