Omg me too. I'm especially into the idea of evidence-based charities. People need to realize that good itself is an optimization problem.

my plan is to make a lot of money and give it away because that's the best way to make a difference

Yes, but only if it is somewhere secular and if there’s strong evidence that the money will prevent disease, reduce suffering, or save lives very cost effectively.

I'm most interested in saving lives by reducing suffering. As such, I've committed myself to making as much money as possible. Because my intentions are noble, I'm actually able to make money in any way I can; traditional "ethics" don't apply on the "front end" as it were, as long as the "back end" charity is worthwhile.

Everyone on less wrong writes in this same register and style, and there is something overwhelmingly grotesque about it that I can't quite put my finger on. They remind me a lot of the crowd back in the 2010s that was obsessed with "open source software!". Also libertarian tech bro hackers from early reddit. This seems even worse though.

open-source software is based

being a FAANG engineer just so you can rack up malaria net donations is cringe

Just mean the type of people saying this stuff. Not saying the ideals are related.
