Put A Number On It!
That same quote is also from Eliezer Yudkowsky in the Blogging Heads interview 2008. Are you sure of the source?
Haven't seen the video (and am not going to watch it now), and the article didn't contain a link. So I can't answer this.
If you give me the exact time when it is said in the video, I will retract the comment.
I thought you were not allowed to quote LWers?
I interpreted "Do not quote from Less Wrong itself" as things posted directly on this website, not as things posted anywhere by anyone who also happens to have an account on this website.
(Eliezer Yudkowsky and Robin Hanson are mentioned as specific exceptions.)
I also remember hearing that the point of that rule is to prevent the RQ threads to become echo chambers and therefore it should also apply to things LW regulars say elsewhere, but if so I'd very much rather the rule said that explicitly.
FWIW this is also my interpretation of the intention, but WIW may not be very much since I have never been very active in either posting or voting on Rationality Quotes.
