Rationalist fiction should be used for entertainment purposes only.

Yes, but some can teach about rationality.

 >>/5819/
Your whole approach is wrong.
READ THE SEQUENCES

Hatchet by Gary Paulsen

 >>/5823/
Why would anyone want to waste their time reading an overly verbose retelling of some undergrad decision theory and probability textbooks sprinkled with quantum woo and evopsych anecdotes?

 >>/5832/
Why would anyone want to waste their time on an imageboard based whose culture is based on these retellings?

 >>/5833/
implying anyone besides big yud's most diehard suckups (soares, salamon, muehlhauser, galef) has even read the sequences

 >>/5833/
That's a good question, considering that this place has approximately 1 active poster.

We could invite Scott!

I will write one about WWIII involving ethnobioweapons, AI, robots and drones. I want to reveal game-theoretical aspects of omnicide.

This one's somewhat in line with rationalist concerns

 >>/6264/
This is actual rationality.

 >>/6265/
Depends.
Why does the universe never get destroyed, despite how often it gets close? Is it because of insane but unreliable luck, or because of the anthropic principle, or because there's some sort of physical law that something will always stop it, no matter how bad the odds?

 >>/6266/
Good question, but if you're headed down that road you've got to also consider "why does the world never stay saved?" and "where were all these threats before the superheroes started showing up recently?"
