Early access essay: How can we develop transformative tools for thought?
Added 2019-09-25 05:12:49 +0000 UTCUpdate: Unfortunately, we've had to temporarily take this down because it seems the link was shared. We'll put it back in the next day or so behind a Patreon login.
This is a draft of an essay Andy and I have poured time into over the past few months. Please don't share the URL, since we're still working on the essay! But we thought you might enjoy an early peek:
The essay does what it says on the tin: it's a discussion of how best to develop transformative new tools for thought. We discuss mnemonic essays (like "Quantum Computing for the Very Curious") in depth - what the impact has been, ways we're been experimenting with the site, and many ideas for the future. We also look more broadly at tools for thought.
Enjoy!

Thanks - it's fine and welcome. Hard to say what the best way of providing it is. There's an argument for making it private (so others don't need to read it here). But making it here also reduces the need for others to repeat. Perhaps the best solution would be a single comment, linking to a public google doc or similar, containing the typos you've found?
