Reading part 3 gave me the blindingly obvious in hindsight realization that Guess-culture Georg would actually have to do non-insignificant amounts of cognitive work to move from implicit to explicit. I participate in guess-culture since it’s the norm in my social circles, but I would estimate it takes closer to 80% of my cognitive load and I’ve just been assuming that everyone else was more naturally able to model other people and so they were explicitly doing ~10% or whatever, and were unable to articulate the shortcuts. This suddenly makes so much more sense.
I’ve enjoyed much of your 30 days of posts, but it is entirely possible that this is the realization that’s going to stick with me.
. . . Oh.
