• Fellow HSP entrepreneurs, how do you manage your energy and stress?

  I force clients who want to talk to me to book a call. I use cal.com (free) and my Google Calendar (which its linked to) only allows calls on specific days/times. I have a few "Call Blocks" where they can book. That let's me do calls in a small section of my week, with ample downtime to recover the rest of the week. I'm still learning how many calls a day I can handle. Currently anything more than 2 is too much. Source: 6 months ago

• GiveDirectly – Send money directly to people who need it most

• Sam Bankman-Fried and the effective altruism delusion

  When I donate to http://givewell.org , I don't care about the relative value they place on arms and legs. What I care about is avoiding pseudo-charities. You know, the ones that pop up in exposé articles every now and then where most of the money goes to marketing and admin, a tiny sliver goes to the actual cause, and then a clown car pulls up full of people who try to rationalize how this is actually a good... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Why does a 13 and 14 year old has a gun?

  You should definitely help random strangers! Do it by contributing money to stop malaria, or whatever the current top charity on http://givewell.org is. That helps far more people with far more efficiency than giving money directly to someone you pass on the street (and if you want to give money directly to people who need it, there’s also http://givedirectly.org, which does exactly that (and was also in...

• I have a contract to be cryopreserved after my legal death for the chance of future revival AMA

  I unfortunately don't think that the 45€ per month that I spend on my cryonics contract would be able to save the poor. Also, it's not an either or.
