Being a well-written and engaging read, with good use of videos and pictures
Deepening a previously existing discussion on LW (about the nature of status)
Giving readers a puzzle they’re challenged to think about themselves to test their understanding
Also, while it wasn’t really a reason to curate, I want to add that I really appreciate the way that Helen has a very positive and friendly way of engaging with everyone in the comments. :)
A way to further improve the post would have been to clarify the distinction between status and size some more—I felt like I roughly understood the distinction, especially after reading the comments where this was discussed further, but I’m still not sure if I could always reliably distinguish the two.
