Oh no, I know DAMN well I could’ve done WAY better if I’d been less stupid in the first place! Although if I had to communicate with my past self, I think the best thing I could have told him would be just to put a note at the beginning of the original post saying explicitly that it was a draft with many, many problems, but that I was pretty damn sure DI was a super-important topic to bring to the attention of LW, so if anyone would be so super-cool nice as to give me some feedback on how to make it more presentable...
There’s no way I could communicate the things I’ve learned so far to him more effectively than his resulting experience would teach him.

Uh, does this seem like an interesting idea?
