Since LW is going to get a lot of visitors someone should put an old post that would make an excellent first impression in a prominent position. I nominate How to Be Happy.
Let's check featured articles on the main page on 19 July 2014....and...there we go.
"Eliezer Yudkowsky Facts" as a featured article. Wow, that's certainly one way to react to this kind of criticism.
(I approve.)
Re-reading that post, I came upon this entry, which seems particularly relevant:
Assuming we can trust the veracity of this "fact", I think we have to begin to doubt Eliezer's rationality. I mean, sure, the Streisand effect is a real thing, but causing Roko's obscure thought experiment to become the subject of the #1 recently most read article on Slate, just by censoring it? Is that really realistic?
...
Seriously, did anyone actually see something like this coming?
