What we mean by a good mind.
A good mind is not measured by how much it holds, but by what it does with what it has.
By Pebble House
It asks better questions. It is comfortable not knowing, for a while. It can hold two ideas at once and judge between them. It changes when the evidence changes, which is harder than it sounds.
Built, not given
None of this is innate. It is built, slowly, through the right kind of work in the right kind of place: reading that stretches you, problems that resist you, conversation that sharpens you.
That is what we are quietly in the business of building.
