The feed trains you to throw good work away. Post it. Watch the first-hour graph. If it doesn’t spike, bury the shame and invent something new before lunch. That pace doesn’t make you prolific. It makes every idea disposable, even the ones your people already asked you to explain again. You don’t always need a new idea.
