I finally understand why Curious people care about evidence in real life

I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.

I tried this in Madrid with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.

> Tiny progress is still progress.

That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where evidence stopped feeling new.

The detail that surprised me was how much a coworking table changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy.

Same here. It took me too long to learn.

Fair point, but I had the opposite experience. The Nairobi example makes it feel concrete.

I agree with the goal and disagree with the method. I would test it for 3 days before deciding.
