Some notes:
We built a tool, viewpoints.xyz
Viewpoints is embeddable in both the EA forum and LessWrong
I have had some talks with the LessWrong team about them building something similar.
This is cool!
Suggestion: link to some example of what pol.is is, the homepage you linked to is just the signup page
I have been meaning to reach out to you because, well, you are the "prediction market question guy" and perhaps I am an aspiring apprentice/protege or something like that, maybe? Idk exactly, but I have been looking into applying to the new Forecasting Research Institute as a part time question creator and some other ideas so I figured I would seek guidance from the guru. Can I find you on discord?
