Hello everyone!
My personal and professional development keep leading me back to the LessWrong sequences, so I’ve gathered up enough humility to join in the discussions. I hope to meet your high standards.
I’m 27 and my background is in business and the life sciences; I see rationality as a critically important tool in these areas, but ultimately a relatively minor tool for life as a successful human animal. As such I see this community as being similar to a bodybuilding/powerlifting community, where the interest is in training the rational faculty instead of physical strength.
Edit: Wow, all my comments downvoted? That’s a pretty strongly negative response. Care to explain?
I have taken the survey! Please reward my compliance.
