I made a non-typo'd version if anyone is interested. Here it is: http://joshua-david.net/php/cardsagainstrationality.php.

If anyone wants the php source code that made it, that's here: http://joshua-david.net/php/cardsagainstrationality.php.php.

Because I know LW is big on meta-anything, the source code for that source code can be found here: http://joshua-david.net/php/cardsagainstrationality.php.php.php.

Some choice ones:

  • My karma score is the unit of caring.
  • That which can be destroyed by paperclips should be.
  • The coherent extrapolated volition of humanity includes a term for getting downvoted on Less Wrong.
  • Inside Eliezer Yudkowsky's pineal gland is not an immortal soul, but Eliezer Yudkowsky.
  • What is true is already so. The chaos legion marching song doesn't make it worse.

tip: put ?n=5 at the end for 5 of them

Rule 34:

The coherent extrapolated volition of humanity includes a term for the set of all possible fetishes.

My model of you likes negging.

Nice neg.

To clarify, since I made the mistake and wrote out a long rant before noticing it and deleting said rant: This thing is not a different version of mine, but his own implementation that follows the original cords against rationality much more closely and in general has an entirely different philosophy than mine.

I actually like your implementation better, just because of the sheer complexity of the sentences it sometimes outputs (makes it sound more like LWers).

I'd better hope so, considering how much more complex my implementation is and how much more content I put into it.

...I am officially impressed (I just had a look at your code: it's considerably more complex, as well as allowing for recursion. You may not be the best at spelling, but you are quite impressive as a coder.)

The latest hot fanfic: moldbuggery and the Methods of the Library of Babel's porn collection.

Make it stop, make it stop.

Less Wrong is not a cult so long as our meetups don't include guessing the teacher's password.

  • Why haven't I signed up for a horcrux?
  • I'm signed up with Alcor, so Lukeprog's love life will be frozen when I die.
  • Reversed Quirrellmort is not deathism.
  • I am running on corrupted tit-for-tat.
  • If you're not getting the sequences, you're spending too many resources on unfriendly AI.
  • A ridiculously complicated zendo rule is what the Stanford prison experiment feels like from the inside.
  • Absence of the least convenient possible world is evidence of applause lights.
  • What is true is already so. negging doesn't make it worse.

Eliezer Yudkowsky is what acausal sex feels like from the inside.

Inside Eliezer Yudkowsky's pineal gland is not an immortal soul, but counterfactual hugging.

"The thirteenth virtue of rationality is updating."

"The thirteenth virtue of rationality is meta-contrarianism."

"What is true is already so. negging doesn't make it worse."

"Eliezer Yudkowsky doesn't have a chin; under his beard is Eliezer Yudkowsky."

"Eliezer Yudkowsky updates the New York meetup group to fit his priors."

"Sunk costs is highly correlated with two-boxing." (Could be valid- this actually sounds like an interesting topic for an experiment.)

"If you're not getting my karma score, you're spending too many resources on getting downvoted on less wrong."

Sometimes it returns an empty page.

The coherent extrapolated volition of humanity includes a term for the #1 reviewed Harry Potter / The Fountainhead crossover fanfic, "Howard Roark and the Prisoner of Altruism".

This needs to be written, or in fact any rationalist Rand crossover
