Is this post just an excuse for an NRxic quote? And what does the "Yudkowsky's recent pwnedness" swipe refer to?

And what does the "Yudkowsky's recent pwnedness" swipe refer to?

Probably the idea of relocating to a place outside of the US where it's easier to get visas.

No. I honestly think the probability of this prediction coming true has increased.

If that's the case why don't you simple update your predictionbook entry?

Trivial inconvenience of forgetting my password, also I wanted to talk about it with other people.

Edit: Predictionbook entry updated.

Software like KeePass really helps for that purpose.

For what it's worth, when I asked Nyan Sandwich and Nydwracu whether they thought Eliezer Yudkowsky was pwned, they cited his support for open borders and his evangelical polyamory as evidence that he was, indeed, pwned.
