- jansan 5mo agoThe science seems to be 1. Write stuff 2. Make it better 3. Continue with step 2 It even is an algorithm.
- UncleSlacky 5mo agoSomething like Feynman's algorithm: 1. Write down the problem. 2. Think very hard. 3. Write down the solution.
- UncleSlacky 5mo agoIt's essentially saying that you start with an outline, then progressively fill in the sections, iterating and providing more detail at each iteration. I do something similar, which is why I prefer to work in outline mode (e.g. in MS Word) as it is the most flexible and "minimalist" mode for structured writing.
