This is the weekly visible open thread. Post about anything you want, ask random questions, whatever. ACX has an unofficial subreddit, Discord, and bulletin board, and in-person meetups around the world. Most content is free, some is subscriber only; you can subscribe here. Also:

1: Comment of the week is bean on the commentariat review and the anonymous reviewer’s reply here.

2: I made some mistakes linking the forms on the ACX Grants post; these were corrected pretty quickly, but in case you missed it here are the correct links:

If you’re applying for a grant

If you’re a VC who wants to see projects that could be for-profit startups

If you’re another charity/foundation/philanthropist who wants to coordinate with us to potentially take some of the projects in your cause area

If you’re a grantmaker or expert who wants to help evaluate projects in your area of expertise

If you’re a professional who wants to potentially volunteer to do pro bono work for grantees

If you want to help fund ACX Grants (warning: we are on track to being overfunded, although not there yet - if you want to help, consider pledging money so we can ask you for it if needed, but not yet donating, so that I don’t have to return it to you if we can’t find enough good grants with room for funding)

All deadlines August 15, thanks again to everyone.
