I found this blog by clicking a link on Eliezer’s site...which I found after seeing his name in a transhumanist mailing list...which I subscribed to after reading Ray Kurzweil’s The Singularity is Near when I was fifteen. I found Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality at the same time, and I’ve now successfully addicted my 16-year-old brother as well.
I’m 19 and I’m studying nursing in Ottawa. I work as a lifeguard and swim instructor at a Jewish Community Centre. (I’m not Jewish.) I sing in a girls’ choir at an Anglican church. (I’m not Christian.) This usually throws people off a little. My favourite hobbies are writing and composing music. I can program in Java at a fairly beginner level after taking one class as my elective.
I’ve been reading this site for about a year and I decided it was time to start being useful. Cheers!
