Curiosity: Why did you mega-downvote "AI is Software" ?

I've never experienced anything like it before on LessWrong. Would you care to re-read the post, and offer your feedback?

You have it. Part of it is this place has grown far, far, far, far, far....

far, faarr, far, far, far

too spectrum. My Brother and Father are way spectrum too. It's great. They are genius. They're also super nice and very open minded though, so I fear the problems in this sick community are worse. Again, there's nothing wrong with being spectrum; but lacking empathy is always a huge problem. I'm saddened by this. But my family also have great women in their lives, another thing this community lacks. Not the greatness of them, but the more of them. The, what's the word... Balance.

Eliezer is super creative and has a great sense of humor, so I'm not sure how this was allowed to happen. Not that it's for me to decide.

Thank you, moridinamael

You have it... Thank you moridinamael.

When you entitled this post "Why did you...?", were you more interested in being validated by someone else's agreement with your own perspective than in finding out the actual answers people would provide to the question?

If so, all I can suggest is: don't believe everything you think.

Tips, meant in the spirit of improvement (I didn't see the original post, but deduce that style and usage improvements would have helped): 10 repetitions is too many (see below concerning 'too') If Y is 'too' X, that is not great. If it's great, then Y is not too X, but can be very X. I understand that by 'spectrum' you mean autistic spectrum, but the point of that word is the continuum, which means it's not a quality but a parameter. You don't say 'It's too temperature', but 'It's too hot'. Here, you could say 'My brother and father are way out on the autism spectrum.' Of course, I don't think that position on the autistic spectrum is really the problem here, so let's not muddy waters.
