The best way to practice this is to be really lazy When faced with 100-dimensional problem, the rationalist makes a 100-dimensional spreadsheet model and virtuously heavy-lifts it to a brute force Okay Answer The lazy person looks for the cheat and gives up if one doesn’t pop

Path of least resistance. Ride super-rightness wherever it takes you. Don’t get attached to specific outcomes unless you’re willing to work very hard and build spreadsheet models somewhere along the way.

I’ve got mounting strategy anxiety rn because I’m not seeing any interesting super-right next moves. If this goes on I’ll have to make a spreadsheet soon. The chapters of my life I’ve navigated with spreadsheets have invariably been awful ones.
