If you reread this conversation, you’ll notice that I never said I think these people are correct. I was just saying that their stated motivations and views are their real motivations and views.
I actually do agree with you and David Krueger that on the margin more LW types should be investing in making their work publishable and even getting it published. The plan had always been “do research first, then communicate it to the world when the time is right” well now we are out of time so the time is right.
Thanks, reading closely I see how you said that, but it wasn’t clear initially. (There’s an illusion of disagreement, which I’ll christen the “twitter fight fallacy,” where unless the opposite is said clearly, people automatically assume replies are disagreements.)
I love zombie replies.
