It’s really rather confusing and painful to have a discussion without talking about what you are discussion, using only veiled words, indirect hints, and private messages. May I suggest that instead we move the discussion to the uncensored thread if we are going to discuss it at all?
I believe that the whole point of the uncensored thread is to provide a forum for the discussion of topics, such as basilisks, that Eliezer is uncomfortable with us discussing on the main site.
I don’t know of anyone who’s seriously thinking about this particular problem and would want to discuss it there. Maybe someone will prove me wrong, though.
How is the location of the discussion of any relevance? Discussing it over there is no harder then anywhere else, and is in fact even easier, seeing as one wouldn’t need to go through the whole dance of PMing one another.
And the exact purpose of that thread was for discussions like this one. If discussions like this one are not held there, why does that thread even exist?
