Oh come on, this is clearly unfair. I visited that group for a couple of months over seven years ago, because a trusted mentor recommended them. I didn’t find their approach useful, and quickly switched to working autonomously, on starting the EA Forum and EA Handbook v1. For the last 6-7 years, (many can attest that) I’ve discouraged people from working there! So what is the theory exactly?
I’m glad you’ve been discouraging people from working at Leverage, and haven’t been involved with them for a long time.
In our back and forth, I noticed a pattern of behavior that I so strongly associate with Leverage (acting as if one’s position is the only “rational” one , ignoring counterevidence that’s been provided and valid questions that have been asked, making strong claims with little evidence, accusing the other party of bad faith) that I googled your name plus Leverage out of curiosity. That’s not a theory, that’s a fact (and as I said originally, perhaps a meaningless one).
But you’re right: it was a mistake to mention that fact, and I’m sorry for doing so.
