Hi there! I've stumbled upon this forum on and off while reading up on Effective Altruism, which I first got acquainted with December 2018 (less than a year ago). I'm interested in learning how to think and act more rationally, both for my own personal development as well as within EA issues. I look forward to binging on all the interesting articles and discussions on here and possibly meeting up RL with people in Stockholm, Sweden.

Question: does my username show up alright? No font break or weird symbols?

Edit: I had it changed from Siljamäki to Siljamaeki. Just in case.

Welcome!

Username looks good to me (Chrome + Mac OS).
