This market is about whether I will study for 180 minutes per day, *between 3 July and 31 July 2025 and except in special circumstances as outlined in the rules below. It's a commitment device to help me build a consistent learning habit.

Excess minutes do not expire, can be accumulated and may be carried over to follow-up markets.
