My work explores motivation by weaving together information theory. My goal was to talk about intelligent things here, but

Then comes someone named gwern. He completely ignores my thesis and simply asks:
”Tell military firefighter stories.”

My first instinct was to dismiss him as an oddball—until a friend told me I was dealing with a legend of rationality. I have to admit: I nearly shit myself. His comment got more likes than the post I’d spent years working on.

I didn’t want to expose my ass in LessWrong, but here we are. So, I decided to grant his request with a story that blends military rigidity with… well, whatever it is I do—though the result might be closer to Captain Caveman than Sun Tzu.

I am a dyslexics Brazilian guy living in Argentina, writing in English for LessWrong feels like a paraplegic playing for the major leagues—ambitious, awkward, and, every now and then, a miracle of technology.
