Almost all the people cited in this story identify as rationalists or, as Olah put it, hold values associated with effective altruism. You might also say practical, except the distinction between practical and rational is an important one to make in Silicon Valley these days, because rationalism is now its own influential subculture. “If spontaneity hasn’t worked yet, why not help it along?” she wrote to me.Īll of this is deeply rational. Mostly, though, Olsson just wanted to filter out people who aren’t into this style of dating, and stop relying on happenstance to find the right match. Proponents of the Date Me doc spurn Bumble, Hinge, and Tinder and lay themselves bare in Dropbox Paper, Google Docs, or personal websites built on WordPress and SquareSpace. He’s not alone, though, in his decision to ditch dating apps and publish a public-facing document about his search for love instead. Olah declined to give an interview, saying he’s been caught off-guard by the amount of attention his Date Me doc has received.

And he emphasizes that he really wants biological kids, with the vigor of someone whose peer group is still full of strong swimmers and fresh eggs. He’s into being vegan, but not into kink. He says he’s “dedicated to doing what he believes is morally right.” He’s politically moderate and geographically agnostic. The title of his Google Doc gets right to the point: “Male, Straight, 5'7", Monogamous, Wants Kids.” His photos draw the eye, but it’s the sidebar that’s remarkable: Olah’s Date Me doc has four “chapters,” and 15 subcategories. Olah is 29, with the grin and just-finished-hiking complexion of someone even younger. Recently, I’ve seen several people experiment with public ‘date me’ docs-I think this is a really interesting experiment in alternatives, enabling long-form, earnest dating profiles.” Olah linked to his own Date Me doc in his tweet. Chris Olah, a neural network engineer for a company called AnthropicAI and a former Thiel Foundation fellow, observed out loud on Wednesday, “Normal online dating seems pretty suboptimal. The Post, which first reported on NARA's retrieval of the records from Mar-a-Lago and its referral to the Justice Department, has reported the boxes included a letter to Trump from former President Barack Obama, as well as Trump's self-described "love letters" with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.The tweet landed like a burp on a first date: a little awkward, potentially endearing, maybe a good story to tell later.

But the volume of records removed from Mar-a-Lago is atypical, the Post and other news outlets have reported.įormer White House officials also have recently shed light on Trump's routine habit of ripping up documents. Prior administrations have had Presidential Records Act violations, and past presidents have had to return items that were taken after leaving the White House. The Presidential Records Act requires that all applicable materials - such as documents, photos, correspondence and pamphlets - must be preserved and transferred to the National Archives as soon as the president leaves office.įerriero's letter also said the Archives "has identified certain social media records that were not captured and preserved by the Trump Administration," and that "some White House staff conducted official business using nonofficial electronic messaging accounts that were not copied or forwarded into their official electronic-messaging accounts" as required by law.Ī spokeswoman for Trump did not immediately respond to CNBC's request for comment.

The discovery of those classified documents in Trump's Palm Beach, Fla., home prompted NARA staff to reach out to the Department of Justice, Ferriero told Oversight Chair Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y., in that letter.Īll 15 of those boxes should have been handed over to the National Archives directly from the White House once Trump left office in January 2021, as required by law, the agency has noted.

The Washington Post first reported last week that some of the records retrieved from Mar-a-Lago were clearly marked as classified. The disclosures came in two letters sent to the House Oversight and Reform Committee by U.S.
