I am well acquainted with this genre of article and I ain’t reading all that. Not bothering to be involved with this example was the obviously correct decision, even if Trace kept nagging after I’d already said “no thank you” (that famous rationalist grasp of consent).

This in the companion article caught my eye:

Trace, I have some unfortunate news for you.

I regret to tell you that Trace is hate-reading awful.systems too & has posted this comment on their Twitter.
