Upon revisiting this post and the comments it has garnered, I found myself wondering about another thing I’d like to ask from you:
How would one go about getting involved with the work of CEA or, say, 80,000 Hours? What kinds of skill sets would be essential for having a high impact while doing such meta work? Do you consider the potential impact for doing meta work to be higher than when earning to give?
Also, thanks for the detailed responses so far! I can see why it’s not reasonable to place writing on topics like these on high priority, but it doesn’t exactly give a sense of transparency either. Not that I would know how important or effective giving a sense of transparency would be, though.
