Is there an easy way to read all the top level posts in order starting from the beginning? There doesn't seem to be a 'first post' link anywhere.
There is a draft of a suggested reading order.
As I understand it, the sequences of LessWrong more or less grew out of prior writings by Eliezer, especially out of his posts at Overcoming Bias, so, there isn't a definitive first post.
I've read most of the posts on the suggested order, its more to satisfy my completionist streak and because Eleizer's early posts have an ongoing narrative to them. The brute force solution would simply be to find an early post and click 'previous' until they run out, but I would hope there would be an easier way, as sort by oldest firs tends to be one of the default options in such things.
Isn't the first one "The Martial Art of Rationality"?
You may find one of these helpful. As a heads up, though, you may want to begin with the essays on Eliezer's website (Bayes' Theorem, Technical Explanation, Twelve Virtues, and The Simple Truth) before you start his OB posts.
Check out this page. Additionally, at the end of each post, there is a link labeled "Article Navigation". Click that, and it will open links to the previous and next post by the author.
