Jesus Christ, Harry. It's not bloody Twenty Questions.
u/Zephyr1011 [+2] Potentially Unfriendly Aspiring Divinity (7 hours later)
That was a completely unambiguous question, i think it was pretty appropriate How would you have done it?
u/FeepingCreature [+3] GCV Literally The Entire Culture (7 hours later)
He tried to constrain the safety of his command, instead of just asking the system what the command would actually do. He did something without knowing what would happen!
To clarify, my spoiler is what he should have asked.
Things that also would have worked: "Are you aware of reasons why I wouldn't want to do this? List them to me, in order of descending importance."
[edit] "Do this for every command that hits this protection."
u/Zephyr1011 [+2] Potentially Unfriendly Aspiring Divinity (8 hours later)
Ah, sorry, I misunderstood you. I agree. Although, i am unsure if that last question would work, since importance is not defined
u/Nepene [+2] (12 hours later)
The machine was pretty intelligent, it could probably work out what importance was. If you wanted to be explicit you'd ask "List any problems that would be a problem to me in a concise manner according to my interpretation of Maslow's hierarchy of needs."
u/Zephyr1011 [+1] Potentially Unfriendly Aspiring Divinity (13 hours later)
Fair enough, that sounds like it would work
u/Kishoto [+3] (3 hours later)
u/VorpalAuroch [+2] Life before Death (2 days later)
I'd guess that issues like that had happened precisely 15 times before.
u/traverseda [+2] With dread but cautious optimism (a minute later)
Fused Filament Fabrication?
u/None [+6] (25 minutes later)
Actually, I was referring to the Fuck for Forest movement, though I can see why you would think that.
... Okay, maybe it's fanfanfic

######
#### Fuck for Forest:
Fuck for Forest (FFF) is a non-profit environmental organisation founded in 2004 in Norway by Leona Johansson and Tommy Hol Ellingsen. It funds itself through a website of sexually explicit videos and photographs, charging a membership fee for access. A portion of funds are donated to the cause of rescuing the world's rainforests. It is the world's first eco-porn organization and may be the only porn website specifically created to raise money for a cause. The group moved from Oslo, Norway to Berlin, Germany following the trial of its founders for having sex in public.

I saw FFT, and assumed that somehow the Fourier Transform was applied to hpmor.
u/None [+2] (4 minutes later)
This fanfanfic was recently brought to my attention. A fun quick read. Dunno how far it goes to be rationalist, and it's a bit of a clunky HPMOR derivative, but it certainly plays with rational themes. And very successfully, too. All credit goes to /u/qbsmd.
u/acm321 [+1] (3 hours later)
The end reminds me of Asimov's "The Last Question".

If that's all you have to do to get root I see why Atlantis fallen.
u/VorpalAuroch [+1] Life before Death (2 days later)
When Atlantis was unfallen, presumably the physical token was better secured.
Also, steelmanning Atlanteans, I'd predict that by default most of the functions could only be performed at a subset of the cores unless those cores were offline, and that those cores had increased protections against pastviewing. When only one of sixteen devices survives, you're not going to get optimal functioning.
