    This is again part of the problem. You can understand the fundamentals of ML in like an hour or less. A quick start guide being like 12 hours long is insane.

      I don’t think that’s accurate, though. How do you explain dialectical materialism, historical materialism, imperialism, why capitalism is fundamentally unsustainable, revolutionary strategy, and more in under an hour?

        You can definitely explain most of those in a way a 5 year old could understand in under 20 minutes.

        Not dialectical materialism though. I’ve read about it and had it explained to me more time than I can count, and my brain refuses to hold on to what it means.

        However else you explain any other concept, these are very simple ideas.

                  I’m asking how you can fit the sheer quantity of raw information, effectively, into an hour. I’m entirely unconvinced that you could do so.
