Today is the tenth anniversary of the Ghouta chemical attack. Rootclaim's 2017 analysis originally found an 87% likelihood of opposition forces' responsibility – a stark contrast to the dominant Western narrative. rootclaim.com/analysis/Who-c…
מדהים איך שופטים מנוסים שהשקיעו שנתיים בלימוד תיק זדורוב עדיין מגיעים כל אחד למסקנות סותרות לחלוטין, בדיוק כמו האדם מהרחוב. המוח האנושי פשוט לא יודע להתמודד עם מארג מורכב של ראיות ואי-ודאות. מערכת המשפט צריכה להיבנות מחדש עם דגש על תיקון ההטיות החשיבתיות האלה.
ההסתברות שרומן זדורוב, שהורשע ברצח תאיר ראדה ב-2006 ושבית המשפט העליון דן כעת בהרשעתו במשפט חוזר, הוא אכן הרוצח, נמוכה ביותר (1.3%). לאחר ניתוח הראיות, רוטקליים מצאה כי ההיפותזה לפיה אולה קרבצ'נקו היא הרוצחת של תאיר, היא הסבירה ביותר (98.4%).
Roman Zdorov, convicted of the murder of Tair Rada and who is currently undergoing a retrial in Israel’s Supreme Court, is highly unlikely to be guilty (1.3%). After analyzing the evidence, Rootclaim found the hypothesis that Ola Kravencko murdered Tair 98.4% likely. A 🧵:
אקשן מחר...
Tomorrow we will publish our analysis on the murder of Tair Rada, ahead of the retrial verdict expected on March 9th. The case is one of the most controversial in Israel’s history, with three leading suspects: Roman Zdorov, Ola Kravchenko, and Tair’s schoolmates.

Steve Kirsch's newsletter -- A $500K debate: Did the COVID vaccine save lives or not? stevekirsch.substack.com/p/a-500k-debat…
Mahsa Amini’s death, which led to widespread protests in Iran and abroad, was most likely (87%) due to natural causes, and not violence by the Guidance Patrol, commonly known as the “morality police” - Why? A summary of our analysis is below. rootclaim.com/analysis/mahsa…
Following the announcement of the $500,000 debate challenge on vaccine efficacy - Kirsch polled his subscribers on who they believe will win - the results:
Update: We and Kirsch are making good progress on setting the parameters of the $500,000 challenge and we're in the process of finalizing our agreed picks for the two judges. Our preference will be for the most experienced, well-respected, and unbiased experts. #VaccineDeaths

Have mRNA vaccines killed more people than they have saved? That's what American entrepreneur Steve Kirsch claims in his Covid-19 challenge list. Today we are announcing that Rootclaim is taking on this challenge for $500,000. Detailed explanation below👇 blog.rootclaim.com/rootclaim-acce…

In it, I make the case that SARS-CoV-2 is precisely the virus WIV was hunting for in 2019. yurideigin.medium.com/sars-cov-2-is-… Below is a thread on the key points:
Lab leak hypothesis critics often say that before the pandemic, WIV would not have found SARS2 or its progenitor interesting. "WIV was only interested in SARS-like viruses that were very close to SARS1," they say. We now know this is completely false: in November 2018 (a few…
In our debate on Covid origins, Peter @tgof137 kept insisting that the DEFUSE proposal was only interested in viruses that are only within a 95% similarity to (i.e. at most 5% different from) SARS1. I thought I fully explained that Peter was mistaken and the judges have agreed…
Whenever I say anything remotely like this, I lay out the arguments and do my best to explain to the reader the basic math I think relevant. That is one of the differences between intellectual leadership, and intellectual showmanship and bullying.
@ESYudkowsky Actually you also need a background in functional analysis, optimization theory, probability theory, complexity theory, and thermodynamics to make coherent full-stack arguments about the future of AI
New blog post - Rootclaim's response to Scott Alexander's review of our COVID origins debate blog.rootclaim.com/covid-origins-…
@saarwilf @ban_epp_gofroc if you do this again, I would either focus on just steelmaning your side, or select a different format (e.g. written). maybe use historic examples more often (meat plant was also blamed after Sverdlovsk, all data such as market samples can easily be filtered/modified by the CCP)
@saarwilf @ban_epp_gofroc in your defense, the DEFUSE drafts showing that the virologists truly planned to order BsmBI and use 6 segments wasn't out yet, so I do understand that it can be difficult to judge if we were just looking for random patterns in our preprint.
If I understood @saarwilf correctly, he was pretty sure the widely discussed evidence (time, location, FCS) would be sufficient to convince the judges. IMO these judges could have easily understood the more complex molecular evidence as well: youtu.be/EuuY94tsbls?si…
💡Seriously, thanks to @SolidEvidence’s insight, we can potentially solve the mystery of Covid origins via a ~$100k experiment. Armed with these characteristic gut-to-respiratory mutations that are frequently reverting once SARS2 finds itself persisting in the gut environment…
I think @SolidEvidence’s observations about SARS2 gut reversions are very insightful as they potentially allow us to experimentally test various potential intermediate hosts — we can construct an enteric proto-SARS2 (with and without an FCS) that we can then passage in several…

If we reported news rationally, every headline, every day for the next few years would go “AGI is fast approaching.” Everything else is a rounding error — and anyone working on anything else is wasting their time.

Today’s insight from our Covid Origins debate is about the Furin Cleavage Site (FCS) - an amino acid sequence that facilitates Covid’s entry into cells. It is generally agreed the existence of an FCS supports the lab leak hypothesis, but to what extent?
The latest FOIAed DEFUSE drafts only strengthen the notion that SARS2 is exactly the virus one would expect to leak from a lab that coauthored the DEFUSE proposal. While DEFUSE doesn’t explicitly say “we plan to insert PRRA into a BANAL-52-like CoV”, it outlines the blueprint for…
Here’s a clip on why the DEFUSE proposal is so important for Covid origins. Basically, SARS2 is exactly the virus one would expect to leak as a result of the kind of research that DEFUSE outlined: sample many new SARS-like viruses, screen them for the ability to enter human cells…
We are excited to announce we recently hosted the first COVID origin debate with a $100,000 prize, to determine whether the virus originated from a lab or nature. The winner will be announced in a few weeks. Until then we will share some of our insights. x.com/esyudkowsky/st…
