I'm aware of many previous posts on HNews and the main documentation [0]. Does anyone have suggestions for getting started from a non-CompSci perspective? I am comfortable with Python but I'm not confident that suffices.
I recommend learning Dafny instead of TLA+. It gives you all of the same reasoning power, with the added advantage that you can run your proven code in production.
This post is well-timed.

Lamport's video course is great (it's linked from the hyperbook, but just in case here's the direct link: https://lamport.azurewebsites.net/video/videos.html).
If you've used Python before that's more than enough background to get started, no other CS knowledge required.
