I will try to do that. There is a reason why I post the length of time it takes me to write.
So far I wanted to ensure that “actually writing things down” wasn’t the cause of my lack of writing. Part of my problem was never allocating time to writing things. Now that I have mostly solved that, I was hoping to push the quality up. I realise that these are sometimes a bit below what I want to see here.
or a slightly higher self-filter
I am trying to improve but that’s kind of saying “I know which direction is wrong, so now I can walk in the right direction”.
I don’t suppose there are ideas you would like to see written about? Or maybe you would like to collaborate on my drafts before they hit the main group (open to anyone who wants to PM me and join the existing draft-readers). It’s hard—even for draft readers, to say—“this is wrong because...”. I recognise that what I write is not wrong but also not always right.
I have a list of future topics. This one had been on my list for more than 6 months, and I never developed a thesis, so never wrote it out in full. I am still experimenting with styles of posts. You may recall recently the chat-log, model of argument, no negative press, mental models. Mostly my ideas come from conversations with lesswrongers and developing problem solving processes around those conversations.
My basic structure is to go up and down the abstraction ladder while identifying examples and setting up a model.
