One or two people suggested adding links to interesting papers that I wouldn’t have time to summarize. I actually used to do this when the newsletter first started, but it seemed like no one was clicking on those links so I stopped doing that. I’m pretty sure that would still be the case now so I’m not planning to restart that practice.
A possible experiment: Frame this as a ‘request for summaries’, link to the papers you won’t get round to, but offer to publish any sufficiently good summaries of those papers that someone sends you in a future newsletter.
Also, damn! I really like the long summaries, and would be sad to see them go (though obviously you should listen to a survey of 66 people over my opinion)

Fwiw I still expect to do them; this is an “on the margin” thing. Like, I still would do a long summary for bio anchors, but maybe I do something shorter for infra-Bayesianism.

Hmm, intriguing. That might be worth trying.
