An open-ended community for asking and answering various questions! Permissive of asks, AMAs, and OOTLs (out-of-the-loop) alike.
In the absence of flairs, questions requesting more thought-out answers can be marked by putting [SERIOUS] in the title.

I just donate to GiveWell. They treat charity as an optimization problem for minimize dollars spent per human life saved.
Recently, this effective altruism philosophy has gotten a bad reputation because of the support techbro grifters, and wacky long-termism. But GiveWell seems to be distributing the money to reasonable causes: mosquito nets, maleria medication, vitamin a, cash for vaccines
