I’ll weigh in and say that neither Scott nor Eliezer were much of an incentive for posting on LW. Mostly I like the high standards of discussion in the comments, and the fact that there is a much lower inferential distance on many important topics.
Yeah, strangely Yvain, lukeprog, and Eliezer definitely weren’t my favorite writers on LW but perhaps the volume of their contributions led to positive network effects.
