Education: Currently 1st year Ph.D student in Applied Optics
I found Less Wrong through http://transhumangoodness.blogspot.com/
I don’t remember what link brought me there though. I read the Extropians list (quietly) for a few years staring in maybe 2002. I’ve been reading assorted transhumanist sites ever since.
I’m always happy when I find new sources of dense, high quality thinking on the internet. The TED talks have been one such treasure trove for instance. I really like Eliezer’s writing and think Less Wrong will be a great source.
For the last few years I’ve been paying the most attention to politics. I think now is a good time for me to reengage with transhumanism. I have very rarely posted or commented in the past, preferring to just read and learn instead. Maybe with Less Wrong I’ll have a reason to write. Hi!
