Can we ban AI/EA/commonly recurring topics that show up too often? I think there's more than a few posts on discussion about AI currently. I realize this probably isn't going to happen but I'd still like to raise the point that it can get a little repetitive especially if you don't take part in those discussions.
I'd like the LW women series to resume. It was a nice initiative although in practice many comments (and some posts to be fair) weren't really interesting to read. Only problems I see with this is that 1. I'm not aware if there is a seizable amount of women here and 2. The bottom line looks like there isn't going to be anything significantly different between men and women anyway.
Banning specific topics seems an overblown response to their (arguably excessive) prevalence. You're free not to participate in them. Besides, at least half the higher-ups here work on AI-related matters, give to & endorse effective altruist causes, or both, so those specific topics are not going to be verboten any time soon. (I'm aware that there might have been a moratorium on a specific topic some time in the earlier history of the website, but I don't think I know which topic that was. Might have been FAI-related.)
Oh man. My sides...
Honest mistake? Accidental sexism? Freudian slip? My money is on the first, as hilarious as the other two hypotheses are; nonetheless, be more careful with spelling next time.
He must seize and desist!

Why check your privilege when you can check your spelling?
(It's so tempting to continue the pun train, but it seizes to be fun after the first few posts.)
