I don't like meetup posts getting in the way of actually interesting content.
I don't like the heavily blog inspired structure - I want something more like a book of core ideas, and perhaps a separate forum for discussing them and extending the core. At the moment it's very hard to "work your way in".
It would be nice to know more about other users rather than just their karma.
Content seems quite light and of low value at the moment. I may well be contributing to this.
I don't like the overlap between SIAI and LW. I'd like a clearer distinction between the two projects even if the people are the same.
I miss MoR and wish EY would finish it.
I like being notified of valuable new content via email, it makes me sad LW doesn't offer this.
It's good to hear a relatively new user say this. Just because it makes me feel less like the old guy reminiscing about the (selectively remembered) glory days and complaining about 'kids these days'. ;)
I agree. I don't know whether it's that the more obvious stuff has been done, or that people aren't doing the work to extend the frontiers.
That latter. I can be confident in this because I have a mental list of all sorts of posts that I would make if I had unlimited time and motivation. That I choose not to is an indication of priorities, not an indication that there is nothing left at the boundaries.
Maybe you could do a quick post listing the sorts of posts you would make if you have unlimited time and motivation.
Aaaah holy crap that sounds awesome!
Like, you're almost making me want to get a PhD (from there)!
