Great resource. Would be quite helpful to me.  

If you don't mind I will like to suggest that you could maybe create a post on the site describing what the tool is and how to use it.

Right now, it shows "There's nothing here!" below the links. If you make a post I think it will show up there on the front page instead of "There's nothing here!".

It will also give some context to people who stumble on the site without any previous knowledge of it, and will help in your SEO too (to get organic visitor traffic from Google search).

Well done, nonetheless. Thanks for the effort and time put in and thanks for sharing.

Great list Drew. Big Thanks for sharing this.

I have read some books in the list but there are many others I haven't read so I consider this a goldmine and I have since bookmarked the post. 

I also do have a few suggestions to add. Highly recommended.

Personal Development
Black Box Thinking: Why Most People Never Learn from Their Mistakes--But Some Do
 

Operations/Get Shit Done
Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World    (This one is a bit wordy especially if you don't like stories so much, but lots of useful information lies within)
 

Bonus for those who like fiction (this one is fiction and not exactly related to business but ranks very high on my "list of books to read before you die" and I believe its a series everyone should try and read): 
The Three Body Problem (Trilogy)

Reminder that you can listen to LessWrong and EA Forum posts like this on your podcast player using the Nonlinear Library.

Love the podcast, comes in very handy in keeping up with developments on the forum. kudos to the team.

I actually consider every mistake as an opportunity to learn and I value every kind of feedback because it helps me to improve.

Also nobody knows everything or as someone once said "I know a lot of things about a lot of things. But I don't know as much about a lot of other things that I wish I knew a lot of things about."

I always take every opportunity to learn from others because I believe it's the fastest way to improve.

Wish I could have someone with your kind of insights on this team, that would really be useful.

All the same I very much appreciate the time you took to read the article and offer your feedback.

If my attempt at this DAO fails, I'll probably come crawling to you for some tips on how to do it differently better.

But right now the ball is already rolling, I'm already promoting the NFT auction everywhere and the outcome of the auction will determine my next move.

Fingers crossed...

Hello Lorenzo

(This is a copy paste of my response to your similar comment on the other article)

It is great that this notice is being given but I believe those reports are not proven although I'm not sure of their content.

it would only be fair if I at least am given an opportunity to redeem my self, given that these "reports" are obviously just assumptions and not proven facts.

There were a couple of issues raised in the comments which I tried to address and in places where I fell short, especially in the area of my identity, I offered to do KYC if need me to prove my authenticity.

Putting out such a notice without concrete verification already biases opinion against me. So even if the reports are unproven suspicions, some people might lean towards them being correct.

If anybody cares, I would love to prove my authenticity in any way required. Perhaps the mod that posted this could investigate further.

All I've wanted to do since I joined this community was to contribute meaningfully but every where I turn I seem to be met with lots of push back and vitriol and its not fair receiving this sort of treatment. The fact that I use a pseudonym doesn't equate to being a scam. This is very disheartening to say the least.

I still have some updates but I wonder how I can keep posting with this sort of notice hanging over my reputation.

Your points are very valid.

For my identity, I did explain in my other post why I have not used my real name and have actually offered to doxx myself to anybody that cares, just send me a DM.

On the team aspect , I used "my idea" because what I would call a "team" right now wouldn't really pass  as one because the only person with relevant knowledge and  experience  at this time is me. I have interns working with me but they mostly do low level work and brainstorming. 

What I'm actually trying to do with this auction of 172 NFTs is to build a formidable team of collaborators from the EA community who will collab with me in the first stage to set everything up properly. 

I expect / hope those who decide to support and collaborate with me would have the nice-to-have characteristics I listed in my post which includes experts and experienced people in almost every relevant area required for such a project.

With this team I intend to work out all the kinks in the first 2 to 3 months and then launch officially. 

On the matter of well established systems, even though DAOs are still experimental, there are DAOs that successfully control billions of dollars so it is not impossible, but just like you said, it has to be the right team with relevant experience. I do have experience with DAOs and I hope to onboard members who have the relevant experience to properly manage those large sums. 

Many of these things are vastly simplified by using Blockchain.

Thanks again for the time to offer feedback. I really appreciate.

About the Joyce Alvino I've seen their comments but I don't think I know them, but if they are being supportive then that indeed makes me glad.

I agree that the multiple fake names pseudonyms may seem sketchy. That is why I was upfront about the fact that I use pseudonyms a lot online  (mostly because I'm also a digital marketer so using pseudonymous accounts are a common aspect of the trade).  But I will understand if funders don't like that although I believe some won't mind and I believe that when I get my few collaborators all of that will be sorted out.

Thanks for the advice about the organisational setup. I did opt do do this the "crypto way" where anonymity/pseudonyms is almost normal but I understand that this is not exactly a crypto community so I need to do things the "proper" way. Perhaps if this doesn't work out as planned I would pivot to a more traditional process.

I understand that getting a new org is not going to happen quickly and I'm not really expecting it to. This is why I want to first get a handful of people to work with me for 2 to 3 months to do all those proper things and also to advise and chip in ideas. One of the  purposes of the NFT auction I mentioned is to get a handful of collaborators so that we can set things up properly.

I know it may not be quick or easy but I'm just trying to take the first tentative steps towards building the big organization. I'll rather fail than not try at all.

For one let me separate EffectiveCauses (my organization) from the DAO (which is an idea from my organization).

The DAO is/will be a separate entity not under my control and  members are supposed to work together to collectively raise the $1 B using various methods which I listed in the above post. 80% of this is meant to give out as grants for EA projects. 20% covers other things including 4% for EffectiveCauses and 8% for admin costs for the DAO. I'm not actually asking anyone to hand over one billion to me!  

Regarding the [economic] importance, for the DAO, the importance is giving out grants to impactful projects selected democratically by DAO members under the guidance of experts.

For my EffectiveCauses organization, the value is as described in the post which is to think up impactful ideas (like this DAO idea) and source for funds to execute and incubate them. Also to serve as a base for setting up  EA communities in countries in Africa (most of which there's little or no EA activity)

Thank you for the recommendation. I always try to improve and I find this input valuable.

I did try my best to explain what the whole thing is about and tried to be as clear as possible but maybe I didn't communicate it clearly enough.

Nonetheless, everything I'm doing, both in the DAO and for my EffectiveCauses all center around what I believe are my/our greatest strengths which is community building and managing online communities for which I have many years experience.

But I will sure try to make my points clearer in the future. Thank you very much. Would also love to hear any other recommendations you might have.

LOL thanks, that should be sometime tomorrow. Its night time here, will need to go to bed soon.
