"This place could be beautiful, right? You could make this place beautiful."

We want to make the world a better place to live in, for everyone everywhere. : )

But figuring out how to best help is hard, so we're dedicated to keep an open mind, study rationality, and remain curious about perspectives different from our own. Bayes theorem and expected utility theory are usefwl starting points.

To read more, my humble recommendations are:

 - The LessWrong forums to learn how to reason more effectively, which is essential to figuring out how to help others, as opposed to just doing what feels nice or what others will applaud us for.

 - The Effective Altruism forums to learn about the many practically-minded suggestions people in the community have had regarding how to most effectively improve the world. But keep in mind, the community is not dedicated to any particular set of solutions; the thing we're oriented around is the question "how can we most help others?" and we expect to change our minds as we learn more over time.
