i’m just so happy like - the GiveDirectly people have a really impressive track record in terms of turning money into results, being super transparent, publishing literally all of the data they collect on their website for people to look at….they even do stuff like randomly sample the population they serve for the stories they put up on their website, instead of trawling for the most inspirational ones

they preregister their studies

my sacred values are autonomy and empiricism and GiveDirectly is so deeply committed to both of them

if universal basic income works, this is how we’ll know. if it doesn’t, this is how we’ll figure out why. 

This makes me incredibly happy.  :D

In which promethea fanbies GiveDirectly even harder
