I stopped subscribing to the Farnham street blog because it was too overwhelming, frankly. There are a ton of good ideas out there. Using the 80/20 rule (Pareto principle), I grabbed one: Charlie Munger says "I never allow myself to have an opinion on anything that I don't know the other side's argument better than they do." Applying it to current events, I (very intermittently) tap into broadcast news, but watch both CNN and Fox News. Then I fact-check them both. It's pretty interesting. I personally have limited bandwidth learning and applying better thinking techniques. It's a slow process to learn new ones.
