The question

What am I trying to find out?

Can a public notebook of small experiments keep me honest about what I try?

Hypothesis

What do I expect will happen?

Writing experiments down in public makes them more likely to be finished, or at least honestly abandoned.

Expected outcomes:
  • •A running record of experiments

Rules

What counts and what doesn’t?

  • Log every experiment, including the failed ones
A simple experiment to reset and observe.

What happened?

A summary of the overall experience.

This is a placeholder experiment. Real entries will replace it soon.

Next steps

Where this leads next

  • Replace this placeholder with a real experiment
