- VladimirGolovin 10y agoCan't comment on the followup / extension idea, but Scott Alexander's Meditations on Moloch is an amazing, possibly life-changing piece of writing. It's long, so you'll probably need at least an hour of time in a single uninterrupted chunk - but in the end, it's absolutely worth it.
- throwanem 10y agoI don't know about changing my life, but it certainly has changed my opinion of Scott Alexander, and vastly in his favor.
