The most linear way to read Eliezer’s Sequences is in chronological order by date of original posting, although it might not be the best way.
Mind you it will be a good approximation of the best way. His posting order was dominated by needing to explain requisite knowledge before explaining later concepts. Perhaps the most obvious optimisation when it comes to reading is just skipping the parts that aren’t interesting.
Definitely—there’s a lot of concepts that seem rather obvious to me, while others take me a lot longer to wrap my head around, so I’ve been skipping the ones that are really obvious to me.
