What happened after the first week? I am curious whether talk stayed easy. The ambitious constraint is probably the real story. The scale of it still melts my brain a little.

Interesting. I would like to see how it changes after 5 months. The Manila example makes it feel concrete. Now I want to read the paper behind it.

I wish more posts had this much context. This is more useful on a tired quiet Sunday than on a perfect day.

Same here. It took me too long to learn.

That is fair, but I still worry about maintenance.

That would annoy me more than it helped. I learned that one the expensive way.

What happened after the first week? I am curious whether biology stayed easy. The low-effort version is probably the keeper.

That last line is excellent. It reminds me of a very specific conversation near a family dinner.

I agree with the goal and disagree with the method. The low-effort version is probably the keeper.

Did anyone else read this and immediately make a tiny checklist? That is where the boring checklist helps.
