Right. I feel that this article doesn't give strong arguments as to why the advice is terrible in the first place.

Moral of the story is: Monitor your cash flow if you're freelancing because you essentially are your own business.

I see. The experiment seems ill-conceived in the first place, along with the guy's attempt to repeat it.

Refuting what claim? It's also important to note that there's a difference between dry muscle mass and what you read on your scale after you've taken away body fat (that's presumably "wet muscle" - I don't know the exact word for it). So in

The ulterior motive of "rejection therapy" doesn't really vibe well with me.

> You can synthesize more than 2lbs of muscle per month, if the muscle you're synthesizing has been in a trained state previously. Do you have a link to that by any chance? It does make sense though. Perhaps that's what happened with hi

In this article, http://www.t-nation.com/free_online_article/sports_body_trai... It claims that your body can only synthesize about 2 pounds of dry muscle mass per month. 34 pounds in 28 days is roughly a pound of muscle per day . I've a

One is more or less out of our control. The other is within our control. Why voluntarily subject yourself to more risk?

No, getting a job is about being the norm. Or, well, it used to.

There's a subtlety that's missing here. For someone to save and reupload a picture, it has to be sufficiently interesting to warrant that attention. But this use case could be more simple. Suppose I directly link to an image while chatting

If you're fully saturated with work and you're not making as much as your salary, you're probably not charging enough. Freelancing's risk is that projects come and go, so you need higher rates compared to salaried jobs to provide more of a

I feel that the main issue is the lack of open and direct communication with the users. Sure, making the paywall opt-in by default increases conversions. But you still have to tell the user about it rather have them discover one day that a
