I'm actually a pretty slow reader because I have an intrinsic desire to be thorough. But this paper is an easy read compared to my usual fare of deeply technical documentation written by technically brilliant, but bad writers. 😅

I had some vague recollection of you recommending a Brains mining book and mentioning it was a short read. Lies! 😂
Seriously though this does sound interesting, and I just might give it the 30 page read
what? that book is thinner than a finger!
just wait 'til you discover Neal Stephenson 😈
lol. I’m aware and have read a few of his books. Revisited him to read cryptonomicon a few years back and gave up quickly for some reason. Probably cuz it was too thick 😂
Anathema stands out to me from the short list I’ve read
If memory serves it was 80ish pages of pretty technical stuff. Thats a lot to me! I’m woefully ignorant of almost all mining technicals (though plan to learn someday), so my impression is it was a bit advanced and would take several days to digest :/
Ah that makes sense. I didn't think about how accessible it was. Honestly I skimmed over the numbers and most of the graphs and just paid attention to the author's conclusions. I guess I read that book with a goal in mind and didn't try to grok the parts that didn't advance my goal.
