Seconded Nathan's quest for better understanding of CFAR skills, or some more math-y parts of the Sequences; but perhaps more in your ballpark, learning specifically how to THINK of ways to Eganize topics. Like, OK, I have a thing I need to explain (AI Risk for example), and audiences vary (University students, or 60 years old folks) - how do I build up intuitions on how to make explaining this concept interesting.

Non-mendelian inheritance. I am trying to help my homeschooling middle schooler understand how these more complex types of genetic inheritance works (specifically as they relate to horse coat color genetics, my kids current passion.) It's too complex for her to teach herself and I'm struggling to figure our how to learn it well enough to turn around and teach her.

And I share Nathan's sentiments, loving your blog!

Superforecasting or the CFAR handbook, either one would be a game changer. Great blog by the way.

I’m trying to study for the cfa and really struggling to make it interesting enough to keep me going. Obviously there’s applications and there must be a story of finance somewhere but all the examples are so. Boring. I’d love to have mastery, and I’ve signed up for level 1 in May. Honestly though, an appeal to anyone if they have some pointers.
