Agreed, but this post isn't it, and wasn't meant to be. This post basically nailed down what form morality should take. Perhaps it could be expressed as a summation of all our thousand shards of desire. In order to actually compute this, we would use a function which Yudkowsky calls Coherent Extrapolated Volition. That's what he describes as "what we would come to believe if we knew all empirical facts and had a million years to think about it". Actually calculating morality is left as an exercise for the reader.
