No need to apologize for your writing. Seems clear and succinct to me. Glad to see you’ve been enjoying the literature so far. Maybe, you’ll have a little of your own to contribute eventually. And yes, while Bayes’ Theorem is used somewhat for a “gate keeper,” the Sequences are still highly relatable and not as intimidating as some people make them out to be.
Since you live in Southern California, you’re right near the heart of LW territory. The Bay Area is a particular hive of LW activity. Since you’re still in high school and under 18, I don’t know how your age affects your ability to participate, but in a year or so, you might consider checking out your local LessWrong meetup or a CFAR workshop. They’re both good fun, great learning experiences, and fine ways to socialize with fellow rationalists.
Glad to have another polylingual on board. Our range of the languages can sometimes be a little drab.
Anyway, glad to have you join the conversation! Hope to see you around.
