I am seeing new a new “Quick Takes” feature on LessWrong. However, I can’t find any announcement or documentation for the feature. I tried searching for “quick takes” and looking on the FAQ. Can someone describe “Quick Takes”?
They are just a renaming of “shortform”, with some new UI. “Quick Take” sort of conveyed what we were actually going for which is more like “you wrote it down quickly” than “it was literally short”.

The EA Forum came up with the name when they adopted the “shortform” feature, and it seemed like a better name to me, so we copied it.
