Just someone tryna do good. What that means, remains more of a question than an answer - but an action nonetheless.

Thanks Luke! Hope you'll get to recharge and feel the gratitude of all those whose lives you impacted!

Thank you for this perspective. I very much agree with your last paragraph!

Loving this poetic reply! Fundamentally, yes, suffering will never end. And the amount of effort a person can put into countering it, is rather limited, so one may as well try to enjoy oneself. However, I think I was looking for an interpretation more close to Conor Barnes' below.

Hi there! Is this still a thing? How did this project evolve?

Except for service clubs and humanist societies, I am not sure if I'd immediately agree. And even those groups may be less prone to sympathy towards EA ideas. Where or how did you gain your observations?

Interesting to read! What is your EA group called? And what constitutes the "experienced people" you mention - do you use some kind of benchmark or criterium?

  1. Fair to point out that the mood ("vibes") and communication norms should be adjusted in order to accommodate older people.
  2. I'd love to see the result of your mapping efforts!
  3. Yeah, it's exactly this that I'd like to change - for making impact to become more accessible.

Thanks for your perspective! Yes for being home in bed by 10 PM, haha! I'd still love to find the exceptions to your (justified) generalizations on old people, so if you'd like, I can keep you in the loop on possible developments surrounding my experiment/test run.

Yep, in agreement with this. Wondering if anything about these plans has changed for CEA since 2021, even if it's just behind the screens.

Nice, this sounds like some much-needed realism to the hypercapitalist utopian discourse surrounding Mars colonization.
