A bit of a long shot but I am a recent Psychology (BSc) Graduate who currently lives in London and is looking for a job. Does anyone know of any positions in the rationality sector (anywhere) or any science/research/anything else like that around London (or not) that I can look into? Or any other general advice, recommendations etc.

How many wpm are you achieving? How bad it is with rare names and semi made-up words?
You also need to pay 5 karma to comment on highly down voted posts (I think this means posts with -5 karma or more).
No.
The study is in press and you expect it to be reproduced already?
No, they did something even better than that..
Compared to baseline, average risk estimates were significantly higher during left-ear stimulation, whereas they remained unchanged during right-ear stimulation.

FWIW I already summarized this study in a LessWrong comment 3 weeks ago.
How would answering your question affect what you would do differently here and now..
See what I did there?
In response to

Yes, it seems like as a human I value systems/agents/whatever that tend to 'reduce entropy' or to 'bring order out of chaos' at least a tiny bit. Thus if everything else is equal I will take the paperclipper.

If you are actually wondering, most Lesswrongers one-box because Eliezer promotes one-boxing. That's it.
