Edit: it's going to be weird if this announcement is the only post this week to pass a threshold of 20 upvotes. I count the 'week' on the same cycle as open threads posted on LessWrong. It's only been two days since 2400 hours Sunday night, i.e., Monday night 0000 hours. Still, though, there is nothing new unrelated to HPMoR which passes the threshold. My hypothesis is everyone is too busy reading HPMoR, or discussing it, to bother producing other content. I'm only half-joking. The most upvoted comments for the last week are all predictions about what's coming up in HPMoR. Like, how maybe the final trial for Harry will actually be a test of not letting the AI out of the box...
Should I break my rule of not including HPMoR-related content in the digest? If not, there will be nothing...
I'm now tempted to include this announcement of the newsletter in the newsletter just for the one-off recursion joke I can make.
As the digest is an experiment, don't feel you have to stick too closely to a weekly schedule. I agree that the HPMoR discussion has dominated lately (for obvious reasons with the flood of new chapters and the impending conclusion), and the LW digest isn't the place for those comments.
But I do think it's a worthy exercise - not just for publicity elsewhere but locally to LW too: bringing attention to comments that may deserve even more attention than they already received.
I say go for it, but then my highest voted submission to discussion was this.
