Please note that this letter is in-process; the following are my notes
Dear Adam,
***
The negative side to streaks: 115 days on NYT puzzle. Really pressed hard each day. But once broken, 115 seems like a larger mountain to beat, which is a disincentive. Small streaks seem more enjoyable. This is counter to the beat-IT metric story on reliability; but a problem you want to have
***
Sincerely yours,
Ed
