There’s some great thinking in this post, but it needs some editing. LessWrong articles are very rarely this long, so it decreases the chance that it will be widely read. Some more attention to formatting would go a long way.
Good point—I didn’t intend for it to be so long. I had a concept in mind, started writing, and it came out much longer. About formatting—yes, probably there as well. Good feedback—ideas don’t do much good if their presentation isn’t good.
Are you Sebastian Marshall? Cool, I like some of your writing quite a bit! Glad you’re here.
Indeed, I am! Thank you for the kind words. I’d been following the community for quite a while, before Less Wrong existed—I wanted to contribute a little bit back, and happy to be here :)
