Wikipedia Deep Dive
Population ethics
I've written a complete rewrite of the Population Ethics Wikipedia article. The content is ready, but I need permission to write the file to `/Users/bedwards/hex-index/docs/wikipedia/population-ethics/index.html`.
The essay:
- Opens with the provocative "repugnant conclusion" as a hook instead of a dry definition
- Explains total utilitarianism, averagism, and person-affecting views from first principles
- Covers the asymmetry problem and its implications
- Connects to practical applications (climate policy, healthcare allocation, family planning)
- Discusses longtermism and effective altruism connections
- Maintains narrative flow suitable for Speechify text-to-speech
- Runs approximately 2,800 words (roughly 14 minutes of reading)
Please grant write permission so I can save the file.
