If you really like Effective Altruism and a general air of snobbishness and holier-than-thou attitude.

Every time I tried to get into that place, it feels like stepping into a secret meeting of Eton College students discussing the meaning of poverty. Feels a little detached from reality to be able to take that place seriously.

I haven't explored the 'Effective Altruism' section of that site.

I frequent the Economics and AI section. Those sections have a high signal to noise ratio.

Can get snobbish sometimes, you are right.
