This post begins with an interview in which Amanda Palmer describes herself as a maximalist who has to keep reminding herself to say less. I connected that advice to writing and teaching. The original closes with Tim Ferriss’s claim that teaching more often fails from excess information than from scarcity.
The idea still holds, although the post mostly records the moment when I recognized the problem. It does not say much about how to decide what to remove.
