I write at readpolymathematics.substack.com I write about the learning process, engineering + programming, and how to pursue multiple things successfully. Each month I also send a roundup of the best podcast eps and reading from my month. This is a thread of every post from 2024.


Bill Cunningham’s New York The Parking Lot Movie Fearless Freaks Objectified / Helvetica I am trying to break your heart

Drop the best documentary that you’ve seen. One that blew your mind and you couldn’t stop thinking about for weeks. I want something that will break my brain.
