I’d love to read your optimisation content. I’ve been eagerly waiting for you to publish more posts in your entropy sequence or write an “Introduction to Abstract Optimisation” post!
Hell, I’ve embarked on my own side quest to deconfuse myself about optimisation as I am dissatisfied with the existing material on LessWrong (which I have read). It’s basically an attempt to synthesise “The Ground of Optimisation” and “Introduction to Abstract Entropy”.
But whatever I could write would be inferior to your actual article.
Consider that sharing what you have could also save other aspiring researchers some more time.
My optimisation content is similar, but I haven’t yet gotten around to Kolmogorov complexity. I do have an intuition for where it fits.
Will you be willing to see my work in progress/what I have so far? I’d love to pick your brain/discuss the topic with you while my muse permits (I outside view expect to have suspended/abandoned my optimisation project in a couple of weeks).

This is super nice to hear! It also does help improve my model of how my ongoing work might be valuable.
FWIW, my optimization content is basically Measuring Optimization Power plus The ground of optimization plus Kolmogorov complexity, where I attempt to also actually write out all the relevant equations.
