Be more cooperative. (There are arguments about increasing cooperation, especially from people working on reducing S-risks, but I couldnāt find any suitable resource in a brief search)
I share the view that that could be a good suggestion for an action/āproxy in line with everyday longtermism.
Thanks! I didnāt see any post under that tag that had the type of argument I had in mind, but I think that this article by Brian Tomasik was what I intended (which I found now from the reading list you linked).
Yeah, I shouldāve said āresources on cooperation (including in the relevant sense)ā, or something like that. The tagās scope is a bit broad/āmessy (though I still think itās usefulāperhaps unsurprisingly, given I made it :D).
Yea, I think the tag is great! I was surprised that I couldnāt find a resource from the forum, not that the tag wasnāt comprehensive enough :)
It might be nice if someone would collect resources outside the forum and publish each one as a forum linkpost so that people could comment and vote on them and theyād be archived in the forum.
Iāve often thought pretty much exactly the same thought, but have sometimes held back because I donāt see that done super often and thus worried itād be weird or that there was some reason not to. Your comment has made me more inclined to just do it more often.
Though I do wonder where the line should be. E.g., itād seem pretty weird to just try to link post every single journal article on nuclear war which I found useful.
Maybe itās easier to draw the line if this is mostly limited to posts by explicitly EA people/āorgs? Then we arenāt opening the door to just trying to linkpost the entire internet :D
Yea, I donāt know. I think that it may even be worthwhile to linkpost every such journal article if you also write your notes on these and cross-link different articles, but I agree that it would be weird. Iām sure that there must be a better way for EA to coordinate on such knowledge building and management.
(Partly prompted by this thread, Iāve made a question post on whether pretty much all content thatās EA-relevant and/āor created by EAs should be (link)posted to the Forum.)

Two collections of resources on cooperation (in the relevant sense) are the Cooperation & Coordination tag and (parts of) EA reading list: moral uncertainty, moral cooperation, and values spreading.
