I donated $40,000.00
I think it's unlikely that pengvado is lying -- but if anyone from CFAR is reading this and can confirm this donation, I think that would be a Good Thing.
Confirmed. (The delay replying was because checks take time to get places.)
Probably a European ("," = ".").
But really, quite impressive, not only as a donation but also as a demonstration of how highly selected the LW readership is.
Who would give three decimal places on a number of dollars?
[EDITED to add: Er, I suppose Kawoomba's second sentence indicates that the first was only a joke. My apologies for not getting it.]
Who would donate 40k dollars? :)
Not that it's a bad thing, just comparing the rarity of 3-decimal-givers vs. 40k-$-givers. The latter is not something I've ever encountered announced "casually" in a forum, other than on LW, that is.
Fair point. I've seen quite substantial donations announced in LW threads before, but never as big as $40k.
Pengvado previously commented on a MIRI fundraising post that he "donated 20,000$ now, in addition to 110,000$ earlier this year," which was true.
