Title: 80000 hours?
Post by: Diabolizer on November 25, 2023, 06:00:41 am

Has anyone looked at 80000 hours? (https://80000hours.org/)  I just discovered it while watching this video on altruism.


Anyway, I thought I'd pass it on.

I don't know what 80000 hours is. Can you explain?

It's a website, appears to be a career guidance website? 80,000 hours is how long your career is / might be, so I guess they're trying to get you to make the most of it. Haven't read much of it.

Oops, I should have explained that.  80000 hours is a career guidance website (as noted by firefly), but with a focus on careers that have a positive impact on the world.
