    I've always been wary of effective altruism. Anything that geek and people want to "optimize out" by engineering has a risk of just being a "let's ride very fast towards that wall" kind of venture

      What about if it were called 'evidence-based altruism'?

        ”KPI based altruism" could be more accurate ?
