Hi. I’ve studied Computer Science and Mathematics at the undergraduate level. I currently work as a software engineer, but have been looking into fields that would allow me to work with more mathematics. I am also very much interested in entrepreneurship from both the “fix problems I see with the world” and the “get really wealthy” perspectives.
I have been reading LW and OB off and on for years, but have never quite made it through all of the sequences.
I am mainly interested in efficient learning and applications of rationality to every day life. My primary concerns currently focus around what I should do with my life to benefit society (and myself and loved ones) the most. I have been applying the anti-akrasia tactics to some effect, but still have a long way to go before I would consider myself a truly effective person.
I tend to overuse signaling explanations for human behavior. They are very compelling to me.
