Hi, I'm Loofah. This is my little ecosystem of thoughts. My current hopes for it:
- act as a place where I can cultivate and more easily share ideas
- write and think publicly, with hopes of inspiring others do the same ("do more of what you want to see in the world"), and eventually domino all of us towards a golden age for humanity
- help me find more awesome people to learn from :)
I really enjoy learning/working/discussing...
- the question of "how can humankind flourish better?" - through the lens of (anti-)mimetics, incentive design, and resource allocation
- improving phenomenological experience through insights from meditation and meditation-adjacent explorations
- methods that help us move from working in an intellectual, emulative way to somatically becoming/"getting" the thing, particularly felt senses of agency, energy, and focus
- building a constraint-literate philosophy of action, for individuals as well as larger systems: often we're short on time/compute/information and need to make good decisions in spite of this - shoutout to @IvanVendrov for the elegant framing
- effective thinking and perception in adversarial and noisy environments (e.g. forecasting, investing, trading)
