@bitstein Both happened.
3/ Most readers don't want to spend most of their time reading overly verbose works by single author, but previously had much less choice.

@NickSzabo4 how do magazines, journals fit into this thinking? -
@adamshostack Still overly verbose thoughts of a few authors, "chapters" shuffled, making it even harder to find what you need.

@NickSzabo4 5 / Short, low Kolmogorov complexity text w high aprnt value wins over higher Kolmogorov complexity text w neutral aprnt value -
@jeffcliff1 High Kolmogorov complexity is usually ephemeral, vs. very useful low K complexity (e.g. laws of physics) very general. -
@NickSzabo4 that might depend on the time frame. Short term low K may dominate. Analogy: sugar is good right now,high-sugar diet->diabetes -
@NickSzabo4 After all, even a small sugar boost can unlock mental systems capable of allowing us to do more. See: http://www.radiolab.org/story/91709-limits/ …
