Those footnotes are interesting, and it’s difficult to enjoy them in flow as I read. Could you use a different method to annotate your ideas? System 1 and 2 could be explained each time, couldn’t they? Seems to be a core concept. Illustrate them with anecdotes? I’m learning something new, and I need to be able to pin the knowledge against something I recognize easily. Thanks for teaching us all.
Great comments Ron.I am honestly wrestling with how to walk that line between technical accuracy and making it understandable for a general audience. The weekly posts build on each other like chapters in a book. How to write it so that someone can start on chapter 9 and not be lost?
You will do well to accept that Substack is like an anthology show: not a multi season drama, as a book can be. One-off, because the general reader is your biggest pool of readers.
