The “Daily” page seems to be the one that is most useful to regular users (it’s the one I bookmarked), but it’s relatively hidden. I think it should be linked directly on the top navbar or somewhere else on the front page instead of hidden inside the hamburger menu in the navbar.

Does anybody have recommendations for video lecture series? Any topic.
But why is it a piece of evidence pointing to greater than 80% instead of 80%?
I still don’t see the difference.
Are you saying that if many forecasters predict that something has an 80% probability of happening and they all use different methodologies, I should expect it to happen with greater than 80% probability? Why?
That would not be reasonable if we were talking about something like a prediction of whether a 5-sided die would come up with the number 1. Why are polls any different?
Is the example about an academic article on hyper computation real?
Anybody have recommendations of a site with good summaries of the best/most actionable parts from self-help books? I’ve found Derek Sivers’ book summaries useful recently and am looking for similar resources. I find that most self-help books are 10 times as long as they really need to be, so these summaries are really nice, and let me know whether it may be worth it to read the whole book.
Robin Hanson’s “The Age of Em” is a book about this sort of thing.
What should you be doing right now if you believe that advances in AI are about to cause large-scale unemployment within the next 20 years (ignoring the issue of FAI for the sake of discussion)?
Aside from allergies, also consider whether the digestive trouble could be due to anxiety or other psychological issues.
Anyone have recommendations of fiction along the lines of Worm and HPMOR that are also very long (>400k words)?
Anti-intellectual?
Are there any specific kinds of dancing lessons you’d recommend over others?

You could save up money for a few months then move to a country with a very cheap cost of living and live off your savings.
In a reddit AMA a couple of days ago, someone asked Sam Altman (president of Y Combinator) “How do you think we can best prepare ourselves for the advance of AI in the future? Have you and Elon Musk discussed this topic, by chance?” He replied:
Elon and I have discussed this many, many times. It’s one of the things I think about most. Have some news coming here in a few months...
Any guesses on the news?
Tutoring? Put up flyers and sign up for wyzant (they take 40% at first, going down to 20% after you log many hours with them, which really sucks, but they’re the only popular online marketplace for tutors).
The Feeling Good Handbook. It focuses specifically on Depression and Anxiety, but could probably be useful for anyone.
Thanks, I was going to take your advice, but I got lucky and found a nice place yesterday.
I think your point about less information per screen identifies what has been bothering me. It makes it much harder to skim or to refer back to previous paragraphs.
