I have been here for a few years, I think my model of “the LW mindset” is fairly good.
I suppose the general thing I am trying to say is: “speak less, read more.” But at the end of the day, this sort of advice is hopelessly entangled with status considerations. So it’s hard to give to a stranger, and have it be received well. Only really works in the context of an existing apprenticeship relationship.

Status games outside, the sentiment expressed in my reply are my real views on the matter.
