To summarize, my to-do list is long and heterogenous, and most of the items on the list are there because I think doing them will improve the chance of a positive singularity (some through just a few levels of indirection, like volunteering for SI; some through many levels of indirection, like watching sped up video lectures in order to add to my conceptual toolkit).
I’m going to invoke one of my favorite quotes, and then go meta:
