Some notes after seeing [How to explain things good](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-M2U3Jl1Cg) Top 5 rules of thumb/heuristics to explain things REAL GOOD 1. Show what made you care. 2. Show, then tell. (interesting when thinking about the writing rule [[Show, do not tell]]) 3. Use "but...therefore", not "and...then". 4. Write a draft, then cut 10%, kind of `wordcount * 0.9 = newWordcount` 5. Do real tests, early & often. Yeah, in the slides ![[five_tricks_to_explain_things_good.png]] ![[idea_but_therefore.png]] ⭐️ Great quote: > With great power comes great responsibility! In summary, one will need a lot of effort (time & energy & thinking) to try to explain things concisely. Thanks for their work ❤️
