Thou shalt not quote Yudkowsky.
...how are we supposed to tell people about this rule?
Edit: Aw, I thought it was funny.
Ever played Mao?
Saying the name of the game ::gives card::
One of my fondest childhood memories.
"We don't put quotes from Eliezer in the Rationality Quotes thread" seems to work. Quoting the expression of an authority is a way to lend persuasiveness to your rule assertion but it is not intrinsic to the process of rule explaining.
I can tell people "Don't drive through intersections when the lights are red" and I'm telling someone about the rule without quoting anything.
Is this a trivial extension of
to include SI/MIRI stuff or a new commandment?
I think that the purpose of the current instruction is to refrain from quoting ourselves and each other. So I'd see it as a trivial extension to understand that Eliezer and other well-known members of the community should not be used for a source for quotes.
Yep, that trivial extension one.
Understood.
