@alfredtwo I'm a big fan of checklists and highly recommend the book "The Checklist Manifesto." atulgawande.com/book/the-check…. Rather than a replacement for expertise, think of it as both support for experts (because cognitive capacity is limited) and a scaffold for learning.

An interesting post that has me thinking. blog.acthompson.net/2025/12/how-mu…

@alfredtwo I tried to reply, but the website wouldn't let me. Thanks for engaging, Alfred! Great comments! >>
