Molly White is best known for shining a light on the silliness and fraud that are cryptocurrency, blockchain and Web3. This essay may be a sign that she’s shifting her focus to our sneerworthy friends in the extended rationalism universe. If so, that’s an excellent development. Molly’s great.

    For example, the inaugural Substack post defining effective accelerationisms’s “principles and tenets” name-drops the “Jarzynski-Crooks fluctuation dissipation theorem”

    To echo a comment from old!SneerClub: That’s not a thing. There are three separate but related ideas (the Crooks fluctuation theorem, the Jarzynski equality and the fluctuation-dissipation theorem) which the author doesn’t know are separate, because he hasn’t a clue what he’s talking about.
