Interests

I have… way too many, and pursue them with varying degrees of time investment and zeal. Here are a few.

Information Security

Wilderness Medicine

Robots

Space

SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE

Forecasting/Foresight/Future Studies

Finance & Monetary Policy

National Security/Arms Control/Intelligence/OSINT

Strategy/History

Synthetic Biology

Risk Management

Disaster Preparedness, Recovery, and Response

Learning/Human Cognitive Performance

This was kicked off by “Learning how to Learn” on Coursera and I’ve since read PILES of books about it. Things like spaced repetition (in the form of Anki) have shown strong enough results for me that I’m now hooked and want more understanding of how to make my brain better at doing what I want it to.

Chinese Language

I’m studying. I’m very bad at it.
