Never Asked Questions

Questions nobody asks but I wish they would.

Why "20th"?
This website is the 20th version. I keep tinkering, rebuilding, experimenting. This is iteration twenty.
What are you working on?
Check my /now page for current focus.
What books changed your thinking?
The Black Swan, Thinking Fast and Slow, The Beginning of Infinity. See my notes.
How do you decide what to work on?
I follow curiosity. I don't plan years ahead. I run small experiments and double down on what works.
Why do you write?
To understand my own thinking. If I can't explain something clearly, I don't understand it.
What's your favorite way to learn?
Reading + building. Theory without practice is useless. Practice without theory is blind.
