For certain reasons, I had the opportunity today to utter the words, "Expertise is not algorithmic".
Now, if that novice wants to learn? By all means, let the multi-year intensive mentorship begin! We will inquire together. I will learn from and with them in the process.
But friends, THAT is the algorithm. Commence a life of professional inquiry. That's the algorithm. I cannot reproduce that in a document for you, and I will also not try to.

No.
We spend that time learning things; things which cannot be just be written down on a slide deck and passed along to a novice.
There is not some secret "How to build great curriculum" google doc that we have been hiding from the world, and which you are allowed to read on the first day of grad school while the ensuing four-to-ten years are just Ping Pong and beer bongs.
In other news, I just had a phone-based customer service experience with an actual person who is good at their job. So refreshing.
