EFFORTPOST Turbo neurodivergent rationalist searches for a 16-30 year old wife on Scott Alexander's blog Astral Codex TEn

As most of you will probably know already Astral Codex Ten formerly Slatestarcodex is a blog run by Scott Alexander. The paper of record has called it Silicon Valley's Safe Space. Our partner site theMotte, is a community of connected to it and it's an influential blog.

Today Scott posted a Classified thread, where people could look for job opportunities and advertise their own stuff. I normally don't read the comments, but there was a section called dating that intrigued me. Some readers link to their so called Dating Docs. Think of them as a longer form OkCupid page. They're usually a little cringe, but also endearing and many words have been spilled about them.

But this post is not about them, a certain comment caught my attention.

At first glance this looks a troll post, like why does he want his wife to shave her head?

But after some digging , I'm inclined to believe it's a serious post.

The comment was posted shortly after the blog post was published, the poster provides a long list of math and coding competitions he either one or placed near the top in, and I was able to confirm that someone with the name he provides won them. Actually very impressive.

He also linked to a txt file called Productivity.txt, let's have a gander and answer why he wants his future wife to shave her head.

His main obsession appears to be the elimination of all smells.

He wants to cover most surfaces in his home with aluminium foil and build a house of very specific specifications.

You might have noticed that he always writes 0 instead of zero, but he explains that as well.

There's a lot of general autism, very specific food intake, a particular work out routine.

What appears to be a list of every single thing he owns.

Political opinions

Now let's get to the fun stuff, his love quest. If you read the first screenshot, you will have noticed that he's looking for a special someone.

She not only needs to be successful at math competition, but also shave her head to avoid unnecessary odours.

Must not have ever used hormonal birth control , or soap, never mind all the fun stuff.

He's actively studying how to please his prospective wife.

He brainstormed a pick up line to hit up successful female mathematicians.

But he already has a contingency plan in case no suitable wife can be acquired in time.

Thank you for sticking with for this long, if you wondered what he might look like, he wasn't shy and showed off.
