It looks like you already have 3 volunteers, but if it doesn't work out, or for whatever reason at all, consider me volunteered as well.
I've moved a few times (on my own), though I'm just out of college so they weren't super large affairs. I also have an (electrical) engineering degree and have done some searching and applying to engineering jobs, but I don't really have much experience. Another possibly useful bit of knowledge is that I've been in the San Francisco Bay Area for about 4 months, getting to know the area and community out here. We aren't New York yet, but the community out here is good and getting better fast.
Great! I will do that.
(Andrew is a pseudonym because he is a little worried about showing up in an internet search; please respect that and do not use his real name when posting below).
Andrew is an established and valuable member (link to highest voted post) of the LessWrong community. Sadly, he is without a tribe; he lives in a relatively small city where he has not found a tribe to belong to despite considerable effort. Being part of a tribe would improve Andrew's life considerably. Andrew is not attached to the area and quite willing to leave, doesn't know how to taskify getting himself a tribe.
Big decisions like moving are often easier and better executed when made with outside input. Therefore, I am putting together a Special Relocation Task Force to aid his efforts.
Besides helping Andrew, I am also interested in answering the question 'will rationalists be good at this?'. They should be; rationalists should win. If they are not, something is wrong and I want to know about it. This experiment seems like a good way of answering that question.
Here are some basic facts about Andrew:
