I used to read a lot of LessWrong. These days I would recommend people to avoid it. The content is thought-provoking, written by well-meaning intelligent people.

On the other hand, it's like watching people nervously count their fingers to make sure they're all still there. Or rather, it's not enough to count them, we have to find a way to make sure we can be confident with the number we get. Whatever benefit you get from turning off the news, it's 10x as beneficial to stop reading LessWrong.
