  I wouldn’t say ‘bitter’. ‘Contemptuous’ is more like it. And the resemblance is uncanny.

Yeah, I don’t get it. Is Yudkowsky supposed to be the old science-priest or Kimiko? Someone else?

  Huh. I thought the association between Yudkowsky, his former communities and the people within them, and the behavior of the science gurus in the comic mapped quite well.

  Maybe it’s just me.
