Running list of major skill areas not yet discussed:

• Curiosity - the true and honest feeling, or failing that, how to get as close there as possible. Litany of Tarski, "ask whether, not why", Update Yourself Incrementally, etc.
• Bottom-line stuff - noticing when you already know your destination, hold off on proposing solutions, etc.
• Connecting belief to anticipation.
• Use-of-words skills - people trying to milk definitional arguments for inferences, etc.
• Empiricism - keeping a constant eye out for ways to test things. Not big official scientific reliable tests, just keeping your eyes open.
• Concreteness / specificity - managing your levels of abstraction (this is surprisingly important in practice).
• Productivity - adding new good habits, breaking old bad habits, scholarship
• Argument flow awareness - things like motivated stopping, motivated continuation, flinching away from a counterargument that might carry; also positive aspects like knowing which question an argument is intended to resolve
• Nonconformity
• Cooperation
• Saying oops
• Munchkinism, minmaxing, "burn the spirit of the game", zs'hanh, assume the problem is solvable and continue solving it
• Fun
