"glowfic" apparently. written in a roleplay forum format.

This is not a story for kids, even less so than HPMOR. There is romance, there is sex, there are deliberately bad kink practices whose explicit purpose is to get people to actually hurt somebody else so that they'll end up damned to Hell, and also there's math.

start here. or don't, of course.

So if you read Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality, and thought...

I did read HPOMR and I also thought!

"You know, HPMOR is pretty good

OK, I didn't exactly think that. But go on.

so far as it goes; but Harry is much too cautious and doesn't have nearly enough manic momentum,

Dunno about Harry, but the story as a whole could have done with some momentum, manic or otherwise.

his rationality lectures aren't long enough, and all of his personal relationships are way way way too healthy."

Nobody in their right mind would ever think any of this.

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.]
