thank you! nudge nudge- 80k nudge nudge 

This post speaks to the first principles and EA-agnostic part of me. I think anger is totally fine and don’t really agree with the emotionless aspect of EA. If the forum’s objective is a professional organization with formality, then sure. But if its more flexible in the direction of Reddit, I’m happy to read and resonate the raw and hard aspects of striving for suffering alleviation. Good for diversity of thought. (Minus uh ecoterrorism equivalent sentiment)

Have @Matt Beard and @Mjreard considered having a child and naming it Matt BrEArdon?

Can you make it easier to submit (volume) by making fields optional? I.e. I'd love to just submit a handful of links - AI can generate the summary etc. 

I recently moved from NYC to SF and Mox has been absolutely critical in creating positive-sum connections. 

Ex: 

  • Started a group house with 3 Moxians through a discord post - increasing all of our QOL - joy & impact,
  • Getting connected to Seldon Lab and offering them Generalist support in a regular capacity,
  • Schelling point for EA SF - significant mental load removed for regular event planning as well as community consolidation.

We are greater than the sum of our parts through Mox.

What are your thoughts on the seemingly over aching demand but lack of supply for impactful work? It seems like most legs are encouraging highly impactful careers and once people are convinced, are left with minimal opportunities. Are there thoughts on encouraging other routes like ETG or Community Building?
