well, actually plain English sprinkled with silly neologisms, but he'll link you to his blog post that explains those in plain English
part of the problem with Lacan is that much of his stuff was written for students who knew him in person, so it may have made more sense in that context
Using a suitable DEVICE such as a yolk-seperator or the Yolkine Seperatus Technique mentioned in the Avine Reproduction Sequence. That is to say you separate the two parts of the egg, you may argue that the shell is part of the egg, but here we are strictly talking about the EDIBLE parts of the egg. You may ask why we define the egg-shell as inedible, but that is for another sequence.
Wham-a-bam the yolks till they appear creamish, at which point apply to the mixture two teacupfuls of extra-fine monosaccharide crystals to create a Vitellian Monosaccharide mixture. Here it may be worthwhile noticing that at this point the whites will be in a separate container and that you are not to mix them and the yolks at this stage! See the Mixture Assumption Error sequence.
Wham-a-bam the resulting Vitellian Monosaccharide mixture for five to ten minutes while maintaining steady supervision of the mixture to ensure that you reach optimal results. Then add two tablespoonfuls of milk or water, a measure of salt sufficient for this cake. It is worth noticing that despite this being a sweet sponge cake the salt is necessary as a flavour enhancer, much in the same way as MSG may be added to say Chinese take-out foods. The salt is not meant to provide flavour in itself, but, as I said, to enhance the flavour of other ingredients. This is a well known technique, but given how counter-intuitive it is it is a technique that is often either ignored by inexperienced Pastry Creationists or else done entirely by rote without fully understanding the underlying principles. This is why you will also add some flavouring at this stage.
Now add a fraction of the albumen, which you should have wham-a-bammed as well. Then add two cups of flour into which you have sifted two teaspoonfuls of baking powder; It is important to understand that the gas-development of the baking-powder is what helps turn this cake into a sponge. As the baking-powder is heated it releases vapours which creates many hollows in the body of the cake. Take the resulting mixture and slowly mix it into the Enhanced Vitellian Monosaccharide mixture, ensure that the mixture speed is the minimum necessary to combine the two ingredients.
To conclude mix in the remainder of the albumen. Line the baking containers with buttered paper. That is to say paper onto which butter has been applied to ensure that it will come loose easily when the baking process if over. Then fill the containers two-thirds full.
Lacan's followers scare me less than Yudkowsky's, though, because Lacan's followers just sound like stuffed shirts and fellow traveller "science-mystic" types, where Yudkowsky's strongest adherents honestly seem to think that they are purely rational übermenschen. Like, y'know, when Jane in Homestuck gets robo-possessed.

Should Centralia use English or Metric units?
I always imagined it borders the US, so I'd imagine a lot of people are driving cars with MPH dashboards and giving speeds in km/h might just add confusion
But at the same time, Canada borders the US and they don't seem to have a problem with posting speeds in km/h...

See, that's the problem
I don't have a strong preference one way or the other so I was trying to decide by which one makes more logical sense

but at the same time, it's perfectly comprehensible on first reading; you don't have to read and reread to figure what he's saying
Lacan's style is extremely dense and often vague or allusive
if Yudkowsky wrote like him LessWrong would never have gotten off the ground
(you probably knew this but there is no one system of 'English units'; the US customary system is not the same as the British Imperial system)
both the Imperial system and the US system are based on an older system that's now defunct
also 'bastardized' is a needlessly loaded term in this context anyways, since there's nothing intrinsically more pure or elegant about either system
why does everyone know more about art and computers and economics and typography than me?
so that's why i know what little i do about them i guess
obviously it's cultural appropriation, and it's certainly fair to question whether that's permissible
the song seems pretty innocuous to me
i'm far too easily shocked by bigotry
suffice it to say I'm just gonna have to deal.
maybe look into over the counter alternatives? you might be able to get something that'll alleviate it, at least
^^ sorry
