I'm tinkering with building software _around_ roam, to get some useful-to-me functionality.

Roam doesn't allow for embedding in other webpages, as a security feature. Is there a workaround that would let me do something like this?

It doesn't need to be web-based. Opening roam in a desktop app wrapper would also work for me.

I've been kind of interested in having sex lately, and I've been going back and forth on how hard this should be.
On the one hand, it seems like there ought to be some v*gan women in my extended network who are independent-minded or emotionally-skilled enough that I like spending time with them, and for whom it would enrich their life to casually date me.
But on the other hand...

well for one thing, all of the women I've dated, and many of the women that I've liked, have either been outright asexual, or disinterested in sex.

The base rates, so far, are not good.

Plan A is the single most thorough and thoughtful plan that I'm aware of for what the world should do as we approach Superintelligence.

If we want to get through the singularity alive, this is my current best guess of the playbook we should be aiming to implement.
It's my current best guess mainly because there are so few serious contenders that actually engage with the details of the situation.
In developing Plan A, substantial effort has gone into working out the game-tree, and figuring out which policy actions could be made viable for real given likely verification technologies and the likely behavior of the relevant actors.

I find that gen pop and policymakers find it very intuitive that superintelligence would be dangerous and hard to control.

The two main classes of people that disagree are 1) tech people and 2) a certain stripe of philosophy person.
To be fair, many of the tech people don't have the intuition that superintelligence control is easy because they use Claude Code a bunch, and so their extrapolation is "like Claude Code, but way way way smarter."
I think that's a pretty reasonable first extrapolation, and it's on us doomsayers to clearly explain why that visualization doesn't hold up, if it doesn't.

My mom said that one of her friends saw an amazon box outside and suggested they should use other vendors. Her words: "Bezos isn't doing us any favors."

Bezos has personally added more value to my life than almost anyone alive.
I sometimes consider moving to other countries, but have held off in part because it's so annoying to get the physical things that I need.

In that limited sense, Amazon's value-add to me is greater than the differences in governance (in the first world).
There are few CEOs that have so clearly made my life better.

Thank you @JeffBezos for making Amazon!

I think many of Bernie's policies would be disastrous if implemented (getting the economics right REALLY matters), but I can definitely see why he has such a following.

Granted, he's talking about my pet issue here, but he feels "real", in a way that few politicians do?
It feels so refreshing to listen to a politician respond to things in ways that feel straightforward and obvious, when everyone else is playing political double-speak games.
Even if his polices are pretty bad, I do believe that Sanders really does care about the American people and American workers.

For my calibration, do others (aside from Critch) think that LessWrong has this problem?

For those of you who agree, can you share the strongest example of this problem that comes to mind?
This post is phrased in a way that implies that there are a bunch of people looking at LW, from the outside, thinking "man, I wish they would have less violent rhetoric".

Is that true, or is it mainly/only Critch who thinks this?
Even one other person who agrees, and who has had enough contact with LessWrong to have at least one example (as opposed to secondhand stories of how bad and violent the doomers are) would be helpful for my triangulating here.
