Want:
• Scrape popular self-referential blogs (@ribbonfarm, LessWrong sequences, @slatestarcodex, maybe @gwern?)
• For each, construct dependency graph: what old posts do new posts reference? Simplify by hand
Find guiding abstractions. May suggest entry points for new readers

There is none I know of for SSC or http://gwern.net , FWIW. I wouldn't presume to speak for Ribbonfarm - they do love their graphs and matrices over there...

@vgr making that just so he doesn’t have to answer when people ask1 reply 0 retweets 1 like
Yes that’s why I made it. Also to shill the ebooks.
