Like, if you want to make it, you need to do this every day, many hours a day, and not give up for a long time even if it doesn't seem to work. A lot of really talented people that could have made it just give up way too early, or they don't put in the hours.

I truly hope to be accumulating knowledge in there for many years, and over time see connections develop, or years from now go back and see what I was thinking and reading and have a kind of artificial perfect recall for a lot of stuff.
Great comment, thank you!
