Test b3126044e8 refactor: flatten vault structure — simplify migration API and flatten demo vault
- Simplify flatten_vault API to return usize instead of MigrationResult struct
- Add KEEP_FOLDERS: attachments/ and _themes/ alongside type/, config/, theme/
- Use HashSet for collision tracking in unique_filename
- Update wikilinks from path-based [[folder/slug]] to title-based [[slug]]
- Clean up empty directories after flattening
- Flatten demo-vault-v2: move all notes from type-based subfolders to root
- Update smoke tests for flat vault structure
- Remove migrate_to_flat_vault from repair_vault (one-time migration only)

Nutrition

Nutrition covers the intersection of eating well as an endurance athlete and as a knowledge worker — meal preparation, macronutrient balance, fueling for training, and the daily habits that support both physical performance and cognitive sharpness. It is practical and habit-oriented rather than dogmatic about any specific diet.

Why this matters

What you eat directly affects both cycling performance and writing quality. Under-fueling before a ride leads to poor sessions and missed training adaptations. Eating poorly during the work week leads to afternoon energy crashes that kill the deep focus needed for writing. Getting nutrition right is a force multiplier across both responsibility-health-fitness and responsibility-content-production, and the connection between physical and cognitive performance is one of the themes explored in training-load-and-knowledge-work.

Key resources

  • training-load-and-knowledge-work — how physical demands and nutrition interact with cognitive output
  • topic-cycling-training — the athletic context that drives specific nutritional needs
  • note-atomic-habits — the habit-formation framework that makes good nutrition sustainable
  • "Racing Weight" by Matt Fitzgerald — the best evidence-based book on nutrition for endurance athletes
  • Examine.com — the most trustworthy, non-commercial source for nutrition science summaries

Notes

  • The simplest effective nutrition strategy is: enough protein, enough carbs around training, plenty of vegetables, and not overthinking the rest
  • Meal prep is the single most reliable way to eat well during the work week — the decision is made once on Sunday, not five times per day
  • Hydration is consistently underrated as a performance and cognition lever — even mild dehydration measurably impairs both
  • Cutting weight for cycling season requires a careful, gradual approach to avoid losing power and wrecking training quality
  • The nutrition industry is 90% marketing and 10% science — the best strategy is to ignore most of it and focus on consistent basics
