Pretty shitty compared to WSO though.

Had no idea that existed. Reddit has everything.

Seems kind of shitty though.

The difference between successful people and others is largely a habit - a controlled habit of doing every task better, faster and more efficiently.

The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee WSO is not your personal search function.

-Quora

-LessWrong

-Various Subreddits including: -r/Singularity -r/Futurology -r/Robotics -r/SeaSteading -r/Objectivism -r/Anarcho_Capitalism -r/MadMen

-SingularityHub

-KurzweilAI

-FreedomainRadio

-Atlasphere -> Admittedly, these guys scare the shit out of me pretty frequently

3x a week. You'll never HAVE the time to lift. You have to FIND it. Easier once it becomes routine. Meals on the other hand ... extremely hard to hit 3-4k calories a day when stuck at the office for most of it.

Is there anything out there more UK/Europe based?

WSO is the daddy no question but would be nice to have something a little more specific to London.
