Article serving as a discussion of the approach to the "curriculum" - the ordering and filtering of information.

I think it unwise to unload all the information someone should know at the beginning. Unloading such _should know _information should be done once the subject is motivated to learn the information. Before this it serves some purpose, but is probably not the best course of action for what we want to achieve.

So what do we want to achieve? As I understand it we want to generate hype and competency. Ideally we do both simultaneously. This is hard and possibly impossible. So we have to offset peaks of hype generation and competency generation. I think we should start with hype and then move to competency, and continue alternating as needed to maintain interest and take advantage of the interest (or nurture it if we don't want to sound weird "taking advantage of", but that sounds a bit motherly) to improve competency.

Implementation -> explanation -> implementation -> explanation -> implementation ... -> working at google

I agree. I think to organize content effectively, we should first dump all the concepts/topics we want to teach.

I also think we should move this discussion to Google Docs:
