The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Justin Mares no published score: only 1 usable exchange on raw tape, and a fair score needs 8+ record → ← everyone

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q What do you say to people who say the best businesses aren't started by looking at something like Google Trends? You have to go out there in the world And just fix your own problem. What do you, what do you say to those people?

A I, I think that's, I think that's totally true. And to be clear, like I was fixing my own problem. I wanted bone broth. This was like, I was talking to people in my CrossFit community. I was looking to start a business and it was a product that I wanted to help with my own gut, skin and joint health. This was not like a random thing. I'm looking for any, you know, any sign of life on Google trends. This was like literally a product I wanted That people that I respected in a space that I cared about and was passionate about were talking about. Then I just used Google Trends to validate that this would be a decent business as opposed to just like Justin's side project or something like this that doesn't actually go anywhere.

AI assessment note: “I think that's totally true. And to be clear, like I was fixing my own problem.”
