   They're also not that much bigger - Rhodes is perhaps 2x larger when you restrict it to the anglosphere. And it naturally doesn't include the investment money you're basically certain to also get from Thiel alongside the

   Thiel's program is designed to generate startups. It should not be surprising that it generates more startups than other programs designed to reward endeavors other than generating startups.

   Sure, let's take an example. Nvidia might be a real company with real products but that has little bearing on your investment value if if you sold it all in 2019. Even less if you invested with a different fund than you sold it as part

   They have lost tens of billions on ~150 billion invested, much of that during boom years.

    I have no connection to CEA or SBF, I'm just someone who's desperate to recover moral philosophy from financialization by wannabe tech bros. Edit for reply: > around October/November 2022 i.e. after the run and it's c

    So I got "guy who posted on forum" on one side and William MacAskill and Nick Beckstead (and, well, SBF himself - he left CEA voluntarily right?) on the other - which of these would you say has the institutional support?

    I think dedicated project managers are a good idea to keep people focused, but I also think if you've been buildings things for 20 years you should have absorbed enough of the process to be at least basically capable at it. That's

    If you're 20+ years experience and not any good as at least a project manager, I think your core skills are also pretty suspect.
