Rob Wiblin: Are Forum comments fine for submitting questions, or is there another way you’d prefer they be submitted?
Laura Deming: Some question derived from the following cluster:
What are some ways in which your youth has been a hindrance in setting up your projects?
Do you think that youth is a current bottleneck for many people who might be much more productive if they could get past artificial age-based barriers to doing good work?
What kinds of policy/​legal/​culture changes would give us a chance to unlock a lot of young talent?
Liv and Natalie: If you’re working with/​talking to a potential donor who already has a history of donating heavily to non-EA causes/​organizations, how does that change the way you approach your pitch? Do you ever attempt to nudge donors away from organizations they’ve supported, or is that always a bad idea? (It seems difficult to do this kind of nudge if the donor doesn’t initiate it themselves, but nudging successfully could free up millions of dollars in additional funding.)
