But Peter, he just didn’t have time and the CV issue was too unimportant (not to publish—just too unimportant to verify):
The issue with Bostrom’s CV is a minor thing compared to the other things I write about in this text. For example, if I were to ask Bostrom something, I would rather ask him about the seemingly problematic behaviour of the organisation FHI he leads. There are also many other people that I mention in this text who I could have asked about more important things than a CV before publishing this text. But I doubt I would have time for that work, so I prefer to write based on the information I have in a hedged way using phrases such as ‘I doubt’ and ‘I suspect.’
Anon, do you think publishing something that attacks people’s individual reputations and damages the reputation of negative utilitarians as a whole despite “not having time” to do it right is an acceptable practice?
