I find the organization of the sequences difficult and frustrating. It’s just hard to go through them in an organized manner. This has left me tempted to wait for Eliezer’s book, but I don’t know if that’s a long way off, or if it’s nearer in the future, or if i will contain everything that’s of value of the sequences or will follow a narrower theme.
However, I have gone through enough of the sequences that I can usually follow along on new posts without too much trouble. The great part is that whenever someone makes an error that can be corrected by a post from the sequences, it quickly gets linked to by a senior community member.
ETA: This actually leads me to an idea: perhaps we could try to identify the most important posts on LW by looking at the number of times they get linked in other discussions.
