Harriet Potter and the Methods of Rationality by TheImmortalJade

Summary
This is an iterative fanfiction of Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality. The primary point of divergence is that James and Lily Potter had a daughter who they named Harriett Lily Potter.
This is intended to be a fun, relatively-lighthearted take on hpmor.
The majority of changes are a direct consequence of Harriet being female, either due to personality changes stemming from differences in how young boys and young girls are socialized, differences in how young boys and young girls are treated by society, and also the political ramifications of The-Child-Who-Lived being female. Harriet is far less impulsive and more emotionally mature compared to Harry, though like Harry she does still possess the same mysterious dark side. Her scientific interests also diverge somewhat from Harry, with less focus on theoretical physics and more focus on social sciences (in particular related to gender, for understandable reasons), which in turn led her to study more statistics, epidemiology, genetics, and public health sciences.
I did change a few plot points not related to Harriet’s gender. There were some points I disagreed on, and some I just thought would fit the plot better.

After nine years in a cupboard, suffering from neglect and abuse, he finally snaps and runs away. But the streets are just another kind of dangerous. Found not by a gentle giant, but by a different kind of family, Harry is forged into something new.
By the age of ten, he's not a wizard; he's a rising star in the Sicilian Mob.
How will this hardened, street-smart boy react when an owl arrives illuminating him that he’s a wizard? The Wizarding World thought the Boy-Who-Lived was a savior. They're about to get a kingpin.

Summary
Disclaimer: I own no part of this universe or characters.
With no living family to place him with, Albus Dumbledore leaves Harry Potter under the care of one of the most capable wizards he knows: Alastor Moody. The ex-Auror comes to love his adopted son and raises Harry to be a quietly observant boy whose natural spellcasting talent is developed from an early age. By the time his Hogwarts letter arrives, Harry is a young prodigy who goes to Hogwarts with his eyes open, determined to live up to his family's legacy - both his birth family and his adoptive one.
