Great, thank you! The first post is what convinced me to have this presentation, but i did lose the link.
Thank you! As you may have guessed, english is not my first language. While it is easy to find grammar rules, it is actually difficult to find informations on the correct wording to choose.
Hi, Worthstream here. I'm from Italy, as you will no doubt notice from my unusual choice of words. (Europeans then to overuse latin derived words in my experience)
I'm graduated in computer science, currently working as a web programmer, the kind of technical background i think is quite common here, judging by the number of useful applets and websites built by community members (Beeminder, just to name the first that comes to mind).
I'm a regional coordinator of the italian Mensa, a society i joined thinking that i would have found a lot of rational people. That assumption has been proved false, mensa members are not appreciably more rational than the rest of the population.
While i usually do not like fanfiction neither Harry Potter, HP:MoR is one of the best book i've read. I'm actively trying to get my friends to read it.
If i remember correctly i've found LW by looking for akrasia and time management advices, since i'm really interested in self improvement. I remember reading some articles i found interesting, started following the link to other posts, and the link in those posts too... and suddenly i did have an enormous backlog of articles to read!
