i have not enough energy to check if that was mentioned before, but anyways it’s a good reminder: the whole cozy enterprise is, indeed, not a registered tax-exempt organisation, and none of the threee nonlinears returned by the irs search engine does seem to have anything in common with the nonlinear dot org.

Fooling EAs is a lot easier and less risky than fooling the IRS.

i love that no-one of the lw commenters seemed to check the irs non-profit database.

ah, apparently there’s an activity popular in the ea circles that is called “fiscal sponsoring” which deals with such unpleasantness. (in the meantime there’s a question in the comments about puerto rico minimum wage compliance that’s – by pure omission – left without any reply whatsoever)

Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

[Especially don’t debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
