this is the most brilliant piece of writing i've ever seen -- reminds me of Godel, Escher, Bach.

Would love recommendations for other things like this where the style is one of discovery!! (like math textbooks that make you feel like you invented something?)

Haha thanks, I know it's not everyone's cup of tea but I appreciate kind words, and GEB is too obvious of an inspiration. I would highly recommend Terence Tao's Analysis textbook. It's maybe a bit too rigorous/formal (and maybe doesn't quite describe discovery because it develops very standard theory) but it builds in a very pleasant way. If you're interested in Lean, some of Kevin Buzzard's writing at https://xenaproject.wordpress.com/ is similarly pleasant (e.g. https://xenaproject.wordpress.com/2021/04/18/induction-on-eq...).

I seem to recall what the parent describes when taking your course on redux @ Egghead long, long ago, where I think you went through creating a simplified version of redux? Such a great way to gain a deeper understanding of something that, on the surface, seems very complex. Thank you for making that course free :)

Why briliant ??
