In the context of this post it's not about preserving or sharing the thoughts. Writing, in this case, is a "thinking tool". Forcing yourself to materialise the thoughts as actual, written, text helps form clear ideas.

Are there any good forums where people do have good market knowledge and share it?

By no means it is an outdated phrase. Ask any startup sales person!

But isn't this one of the points of all this. Figuring out which thnigs work and which don't? Which can be thrown out and which can be "condensed"?

I think it makes sense. He's doing the most extreme things to find things that work. And then be able to say, "This subset of intervention worked very well, let's try to reproduce it in a larger population."

Maybe if he was not doing anything, his score would be 1.1?

Also, I don't think the point is doing fancy things. The people that beat him might just be doing "common sense" healthy things. Something which most people don't do. See SAD (Standard American Diet).

I built one myself. https://framedbyher.com/the-story/ I can share more in depth guide if you'd be up for that.

Exactly this! I haven't been interviewed for a long time now, but since the beginning of my career, when I have interviewed people I ask deeper questions. Even with tech tests, I use them as a jumping board for diving deeper into language design, tradeoffs and experiences. Even a trivial, reverse-a-string kind of questions can take you deep into candidate's knowledge.

I think the implied question was "It isn't affecting me, here is the data I see around myself. That data is incongruent with the headlines, can you offer an explanation and show me what I am missing?"

I don't think OP meant in general not thinking about a stiff back. OP was talking about telling yourself the story that you have a stiff back because you're getting older.

Both of which they acknowledge:

“It’s a one-in-a-million shot. They said it’s not statistically repeatable,” he said. “The amount of precision and time that went into that shot was simply amazing.

I fast a lot, right now I do 36 - 72h every 6 - 8 weeks.

The hardest moment is right when your body is about to switch from using glucose to using ketone bodies for energy. After that the hunger, feeling anxious, etc stops.

The time it takes to get to that point (when feeling "bad" intensifies) and how long the transition takes can be influenced.

Primarily, by what you eat before you fast. In general, avoid eating carbohydrates, especially simple carbohydrates like sugar, fruits, past, bread, etc. I usually eat more protein and fat before fasting.

Another "trick" during fasting is to cheat your stomach a bit by filling it with liquids - I drink lots of water and tea.

The main thing to remember - it will pass, and you will feel great after your body switches. Your mind will tell you that it will just progressively get worse the deeper you get into the fast - it's not true :)

It's very enjoyable with python. Especially given integrations with frameworks like django.

If you read the article you'd see it's not "million years" but ~300.

This is classic engineering thinking.

Sure the core technology, right now, might be "obvious", but a company is so much more than the tech. Without a story, marketing and sales, the company is nothing!

The founders might be bringing connection, validation of the product, LOIs, etc. All of which are much, much* more difficult than the tech.

*usually.

Some call it "chicken and egg problem". Classic of two-sided marketplaces!

To add another data point. This is much harder to read for me compared to the non-coloured text. However, I am not dyslectic. The colour is distracting, my mind is trying to figure out what those colours mean, and how it should interpret them. Thinking about that, maybe it gets better with time. My mind would figure out those colours and use that information to read faster.

This depends. If you start a new project often it is much better to use a template.

The article mentions that in the 1975 they beamed 34kW but it doesn't say why this thread of research was not pursued further.
