- [The Copenhagen Interpretation of Ethics](https://laneless.substack.com/p/the-copenhagen-interpretation-of-ethics) says that when you observe or interact with a problem in any way, you can be blamed for it. At the very least, you are to blame for not doing _more_. ^ec616e

- Social problems demand social solutions. Not everything can be solved by technology. E.g: If you're skeptical about Wikipedia, you can easily create your own fork of Wikipedia and improve it. You'll have to deal with the social problems of convincing others to use your fork, etc.

- In complex problem spaces, [focus on direction](https://thecompendium.cards/c/everything/sort/stars/direction-not-solution) and not on the details. Don't focus too much on trying to find the best idea. The thing you have to prove is not that an idea is the best one, but that it's better than doing what you're currently doing.

Remember, sometimes not doing something is better than doing it ([Primum non nocere](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primum_non_nocere)). E.g: controlling small fires instead of letting them burn the top layer of the forest. Spending 1 week repairing trains because there was an accident makes people use the car more, turning into more deaths than leaving the train rails as they were.

- [Say "yes, and..." (accept ideas and build on top of them). Make other people feel good. Be positive (optimistic language)](https://youtu.be/VhkcmN-CCYw).

- Favor interrogative-led questions over leading questions. A leading question attempts to get the [[Listening|listener]] to agree or disagree with a premise you feed to them. An interrogative-led question often begins with the words: who; where; what; when; why. "Did you like the movie?" vs "What did you think about the movie?".

- Remember people's names. Humans want to be significant.
15
+
- Not every topic is of equal interest to all humans. When you are in a converation with multiple people and know the conversation is steering back to a human who isn't listening, say their name.
16
+
- Repeat the hard part when you don't understand. Or, repeat the last thing they said and add a question mark. Ask questions if you don't understand.

17
- Dishonest Flattery while effective in some cases, will destroy you long term. If you are unable to find a compliment about another human being that is truthful, you're not trying hard enough.
16
18
- In difficult conversations, keep in mind the ultimate purpose and [[Mindfulness|be calm]]. You don't need to win the conversation. Ensure safety. Control your emotions.

19
- Share your facts as stories, not global facts. Logic doesn't persuade people. Clarity, storytelling, and appealing to self-interest do.
