I generally avoid telling people I’m here because I’m a bit embarrassed about spending time on the internet at all. Two exceptions so far: one a friend of mine who essentially thinks like Robin Hanson, and one a friend who’d have a really interesting perspective to add.
“Spending time on the internet” (as opposed to “wasting time on various things when you’re supposed to be working on something productive”) seems like an odd thing to be embarrassed of in today’s world. Can you elaborate?
