Huh, there must be some confusion going on. The goal is not to add another sequence to Rationality: A-Z, the goal is just to compile a sequence of the type of which we already have many (like Luke’s sequence on the neuroscience of happiness, or Kaj’s multiagent sequence, or Anna’s game theory sequence, etc.).

I note that in my mind R:AZ is a different thing from The Sequences; it’s abridged, and in a different order, and there’s a big difference between “posts arranged in an order” and “Eliezer unrolling and serializing the dependency tree for a concept.”
Yeah, I agree with that, but it seemed like the best way to disambiguate in the above context. Though note that “The Sequences” itself refers to at least three different orders and collections of posts, because the order of the posts was being actively edited on the wiki. So I don’t think even that has a single coherent referent.
