It's not finished. This is just the outline. But I wrote about why North England is poor. Which it really really is. tomforth.co.uk/whynorthengl...

Thanks. Purely accidental the iterative thing. I just lost track of it all and realised I wouldn't finish unless I split it up.

I think it’s a nice model: better out in the world in a preprint, blog post, or tweet [I guess, not everything, not all the time]

I reflected that that comment was likely obvious but it comes from being impressed by how much useful information — in data analysis — comes out of posts that the writers often describe as “here’s something quick” or “here’s a fix for something that bothered me” when quick-and-dirty is good enough

I wish it was obvious, but it's something I have to help lots of people I work with pick up. And I completely agree with you that it's incredibly powerful. So often I get great recommendations from sharing early and often.
