Is Eliezer claiming to (train himself to perform only those steps) over thirty seconds, or train himself to (perform only those steps over thirty seconds)?
The thing I think he meant was “he trains (over a longish period of time, or at least more than 30 seconds) to perform only the essential steps (in 30 seconds)”. That’s at least what I’m aiming at. (I’m setting the less ambitious initial goal of “~15 minutes.”)
This essay doesn’t actually focus much on the followup “drill yourself until you can actually do the steps in [30 seconds / 15 minutes]” because it feels early stage enough that I’m not quite sure which things make most sense to drill.
Although now that I draw my attention to that I think I should maybe be prioritizing the followup drilling harder. I’m trying to have more Purposeful Practice be part of my life but it’s labor-intensive.

I don’t actually know for sure.

This might be the source of Sarah Constantin’s incredulity?
I dunno, @sarahconstantin do you remember?
(I’m also curious what @Eliezer Yudkowsky thinks of this post, for that matter, if he’s up for it)
