Heh, I should make thus list at least privately to figure out *what* I’ve been learning, which is entirely illegible except through the lens of who I’m learning it from. https://twitter.com/vgr/status/1216044327555592192?s=21 …https://twitter.com/vgr/status/1216044327555592192 …

Weird thing is in the case of younger people they often seem unaware that they’re thinking in interestingly different ways and I’m almost a bit wary of pointing it out in case it makes them self-conscious and trips them up. It’s happened to me in the past.

Maybe it has to do with the fact that wisdom is IMO linked to introspective mastery. When you are young you learn skills (level 0 introspection) when you get older you learn to learn (level 1) learn what is interesting to learn to learn (level 2) etc.
