Munchkining for Fun and Profit, Ideas, Experience, Successes, Failures
A munchkin is someone who follows the letter of the rules of a game while breaking their spirit, someone who wins by exploiting possibilities that others don't see, reject as impossible or unsporting, or just don't believe can possibly work.
If you have done something that everyone around you thought would not work, something that people around you didn't do after they saw it work, please share your experiences. If you tried something and failed or have ideas you want to hear critique of, likewise please share those with us.
Aubrey de Grey has responded to his IAMA - Now with Transcript!

This was posted here on lesswrong a while ago, but they recently uploaded a new version of the video and I took the liberty of typing up a transcript.
The video is fairly long, about 25 minutes. But it's incredibly engaging and I highly recommend watching it. For those who prefer text (because it's faster or because you are a computer), you can read the transcript in this google doc, or below in the comments. Enjoy!

Just a heads up to the lesswrong community. Dr. Aubrey de Grey will be doing an AMA (Ask Me Anything) on reddit this upcoming Tuesday the 15th, scheduled for 9am EST. He will be doing a video-style response, which likely means that he will take the top voted questions and post his responses on youtube. When the AMA starts, you will be able to find it posted on http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/ . I will update this post with links to the question thread and video response when they go live.
EDIT: Ask Aubrey de Grey your questions here: Ask Aubrey de Grey, Chief Science Officer, SENS Foundation, Anything! He will be taking the top voted questions and answering them later this week in a video response. I will update this post then.
