Comment on one little bit from The Crazy Robot's Rebellion:

Those who really want to figure out what’s true about our world will spend thousands of hours studying the laws of thought, studying the specific ways in which humans are crazy, and practicing teachable rationality skills so they can avoid fooling themselves.

My initial reaction to this was that thousands of hours sounds like an awful lot (minimally, three hours per day almost every day for two years), but maybe you have some argument for this claim that you didn't lay out because you were trying to be concise. But on further reflection, I wonder if you really meant to say that rather than, say, hundreds of hours. Have you* spend thousands of hours doing these things?

Anyway, on the whole, after reading the whole thing I am hugely glad that it was published and will soon be plugging it on my blog.

*Some reasoning: I've timed myself reading 1% of the Sequences (one nice feature of the Kindle is that it tells you your progress through a work as a percentage). It took me 38 minutes and 12 seconds, including getting very briefly distracted by e-mail and twitter. That suggests it would take me just over 60 hours to read the whole thing. Similarly, CFAR workshops are four days and so can't be more than 60 hours. Thousands of hours is a lot of sequence-equivalents and CFAR-workshop-equivalents.
