I dont know if this is cool, but I recently published an essay on why generalism is a cool sort of specialist to be.

Nothing in particular

It's a slightly long read (4k), so in case that isn't your thing, the upshot is that generalism is specialising for uncertainty and that being a polymath is pretty cool.

Also, being a polymath is your default state and capitalism really doesnt like it.

4k? 4000 pages? That seems too high. File size (poor 'b' got lost)? length? (4km is a lot of reading). 4 kelvin (really cold essay).

And at that point, my brain finally said "oh, probably 4000 words". My brain is weird.

Though that is great example of mental dexterity.

Considering something from a number of angles.

'4 kelvin essay' is also a decent name for a math rock band.

That was a good read, thank you for posting it.
