Shall I take the lack of comments to mean that:
a) Everyone agrees with my points and thinks that they are obvious or trivial
b) Nobody is interested in this topic
c) TL:DR
d) This post is very general and people are waiting for me to get more specific
e) Nobody knows what heuristic is, so they don't read the post
f) ???
Very general. It's a hard problem to make much headway on such a broad topic - starting with heuristics for a narrow range of problem solving might give good direction for how to think about the wider problem.
Got that one from proving things in combinatorics. :D
Incidentally, we will see what comes of Tricki, the mathematical problem-solving technique wiki - it goes fully live in a week or so.
