Review Standards

Different decision types need different safeguards. Money, career, and AI-at-work pages should not all be reviewed with the same standard, because the failure modes are different.

AI at work and job-risk pages

  • Check employer-policy and confidentiality risk explicitly.
  • Separate productivity upside from reputational downside.
  • Avoid binary claims about automation where task-level analysis is more honest.

Career decision pages

  • Model reversibility, runway, and timing before recommending large moves.
  • Distinguish burnout, bad management, and true structural mismatch.
  • Push readers toward lower-risk tests before irreversible decisions when possible.

Learning and skills pages

  • Prioritize market utility and output over prestige or hype.
  • Make sequencing clear so readers do not buy advanced paths before foundation work.
  • Call out where credential value is overstated relative to real project work.

Money guides

  • State clearly that the page is educational, not personal financial advice.
  • Stress sequencing, downside protection, and behavioral durability.
  • Avoid absolute recommendations where liquidity, tax, debt, or household context can change the answer.

Side hustles and business-model pages

  • Push hard on validation, time-to-income, and execution friction.
  • Separate audience-building upside from near-term cashflow reality.
  • Do not let affiliate incentives or startup romance flatten the downside case.
