As many others have recommended, I have been reading the Sequences in chronological order. I do this because the essays are highly interdependent, and it seems that they will remain so despite some changes. Within the eBook, will there be an appendix of some sort linking to the essays in order of posting date?
Also, any complete list of sequence posts will include posts higher in the list that depend on ones lower in the list, because Eliezer went back and edited some of his earlier posts to refer to later ones. The chronological reading has advantages, but has the problem of being more meandering and disjointed and doesn’t fully solve the interdependency problem.
No, and I think reading the R:AZ essays in their new order will work better than reading that subset in strict chronological order. Still, that’s one of a few features i’d like to introduce in the print versions, and in future versions of the eBook. Perhaps a general chronological list that includes posts that weren’t in the eBook too, and marks the eBook-included posts in bold.
