I think some philosophy is useful and enlightening, but I'd like to see a more thorough advocacy of it (not necessarily in this article, but maybe a link). This feels pretty thin:
There is great satisfaction in thinking through fundamental, important things deeply, and I promise you that studying philosophy will completely change your life.
Also this strikes me as uncritical:
The purpose of this guide is to provide a roadmap so that anyone who follows and completes it will walk away with the knowledge equivalent to an undergraduate degree in philosophy.
I'd like to hear an "experience report" from people who got an undergrad degree in philosophy more than 10 years ago. From what I can see the outcomes are very bimodal, not just in terms of future employment, but also as to whether they found it worthwhile, etc.
I guess what rubs me slightly the wrong way about this list is it seems focused on "who said what, and when" and not necessarily what's true.
