Would other people find it helpful if I write an article detailing “reasons to be skeptical of working as an independent researcher?” The reasons will come from a mixture of interviews, first-principle thinking, reading past work on this topic by other people (including RP’s work), some of my own experiences in research, and my observations as a grantmaker on LTFF.
“Agree”-vote if helpful, “Disagree” if not helpful; assume my nearest counterfactual is writing a different post drawn from the same distribution as my past posts or comments, particularly LTFF-related ones.
Linch, I am interested in your use of “first-principle thinking”.
So I vote “Agree”, yes it would be helpful to see your article.
Personally, I am sceptical of all fields that go under the heading of Social Science (a long story… I, also, would need some encouragement to write :-).
