So I was thinking about the brief conversation we'd had about [[effective altruism]], and I started writing, and I wrote a lot, so my preamble is that I mean here to put words to a seed of a heuristic I'm working with, not just criticize. But I don't really have a clean phrase for the topic... so I'm tossing this in my daily note, and maybe it'll make sense to move later?

update: moved to [[criticism page]]

I don't know really how, but the absolute indignation in this captures something of the [[incrementalist's]] lament. Like, dang, y'all, the rest of the pie is right there.

Ordered this book of notebooks. It's shallow, but I do find the aesthetic of these things motivating.
