This article was frustrating for me; I didn't find much disagreeable, but actual take aways were lacking.

> Specific strategies for sociopathy are outside the scope of this metablog post—and the scope of this book.

How are they out of scope if that's what you're advocating?

A bit TOO meta for me; with little actionable takeaway. But not a bad topic to chase down, i just wish there was more meat to it. Maybe I misunderstand it's context.

UPDATE: flipped through the rest of the site... where's the meat? It's all meta analysis and talk but really I am not seeing any useful take aways. Has anyone else found something actionable? I feel like the author would be a good chap to talk to and would have a lot of good things to say, but there's no clarity or purpose in his writings.

the writing has to be somewhat vague in order to get people talking about it, and the author succeeded as evidenced by it being here .

No, I think the author was on to something. They were close to hitting gold, but they stopped short. They presented a lot of what doesn't work, but little of what does.

And certainly being sociopathic, or "slightly evil" are hardly actionable things, and are short sighted solutions.

It's probably good enough to just get meta-actionable.
