So do you think we should also share masturbation and fantasizing techniques (self-actualization) instead of continuing to focus solely on interpersonal relations (collective action problems)?
If someone had a novel application of instrumental rationality in these areas that solved a common problem I wouldn’t object to them sharing it, though I have difficulty imagining what that might look like.
I’ve always been more interested in the aspects of this site that focus more on instrumental rationality than in the abstract theorizing. I’m more interested in how to apply rationality to improve life outcomes I care about than in debates about what to do if Omega shows up with his boxes. I’m sick to death of discussions about Omega to be honest but I just don’t bother to read them rather than complaining about people who do want to talk about it.
