Crypto PM. Salon over soapbox. Maybe a metarationalist or something. How do we improve large-scale human collaboration?

      Another layer: people think the problem is "taking the easy path." That's not the problem! The problem is not *fully defining any desires* that don't already have a well-trodden path to their satisfying condition, never allowing them enough weight to fall out of the cloudshttps://twitter.com/webdevMason/status/1006181402944028673 …

      Most people will take the path of least resistance to having their needs met & their desires *sufficiently* satisfied (even if not in full). When someone is consistently exhausting themselves to create seemingly futile mayhem, it's a sign that all other paths appear barred.

      A lot of people seem to choose paths *instead of* destinations, so - they never really hash out exactly what they *want* - they’re liable to get caught in loops to nowhere - they might get frustrated with people who seem to be getting more with less (obvious/visible) work

      Choosing a destination as a means of setting shorter term priorities is a bad idea. It makes it hard to discover your mistake until you're dead. Hash out what you want NOW—much rarer & harder than it sounds—and think about the long term as one of many ways of criticising that.

      I would love to hear more about this distinction - do you mean you should make your decisions on a short timescale because of tighter feedback loops? How do you work on things where those loops don't exist?

          The timescale should be a function of the problem-situation. But to a fallibilist, embarking on something that will be painful for a long time and only made worthwhile later *if one is right*, seems like asking for trouble.

          That seems reasonable. What about 'I'm having fun; I could also have fun doing other things, but if it turns out that I'm right in the end then I will have had fun AND improved the world as much as I think I can.'?

          Some projects last a lifetime. Some last several. If that's inherent in your problem-situation, there's no danger in contributing to such a project, so long as it isn't based on a prophecy that demands some unpleasant payment in advance.
