Hello!
I'm an 18 year old Irish high school student trying to decide what to do after I leave school. I want to make as much happiness as I can and stop as much suffering as I can but I'm unsure how to do this. I'm mostly here because I think reducing x risk may be a good idea, but to be honest I think there are other things which seem better, but anyway I hope to talk to people here about this!
Some of you may be members of 80000hours I imagine, so heres me on 80k : http://80000hours.org/members/ruairi-donnelly
Hey welcome to lesswrong.com fellow Irish person.
Your name means "hero" in Irish! I have actually used the same username as you! on youtube for example! where do you live if you don't mind me asking? :)
I live in D4 actually. My Irish has faded drastically but then again it never really was that good, tá brón orm.
Sure thats grand, personally I like speaking it and go to an Irish school but I think its pretty shocking that the government spends half a billion a year trying to keep it alive (and its not working) and apparently it takes up 15% of ones schooling time.
I live in Bray, Wicklow :) Maybe we can make a meet up sometime :)
An bhfuil Gaeilge agat? Ha, I bet we know each other in some way.
