going over book multiple times could be a good practice and helps with memorizing the content. But when you read for the first time, do you think brain still stores the content?
I mean, brain is just a set of chemical reactions based on inputs. Reading has 3 parts. (1) Eye running through text and sending it to the brain. (2) Brain is trying to connect the content with other neurons. (3) Storing data, probably in the form of neuron connection, after step (2), which found correct place to store.
Now assuming process never ends and human anyway can't control 100% of that chemical reaction. While your brain is trying to figure out other thing, can it still execute steps (2) and (3)? Because (1) didn't stop

My brain can not store sence if the sence is exposed to me. If the sence is yet to be exposed this is GIGO.
I think visual cortex may remember visual information - pictures, funny fonts, position of some lines of text, maybe some specific words even if the book is foreign and not understandable. But I do not believe you can cut off all words out of book and read it in random order and receive understanding.
BUT from my experience of reading, there is one way of conscious reading without reading the page fully - when I am reading super quickly for finding "good" and "bad" words. In my scientific areas there is often enough to see or not to see some specific words and surnames to understand what approach is being describe and is it novel for me. So, I believe there is a JS programmer who can read a totally new 200-page book "JS for beginners" for less than 5h and understand it fully.
This is not my reading speed, this is what OReilly is suggesting me about how long it takes to finish reading this book. Also available in many blogging platforms, where time to finish is calculated based on number of words.
Time to finish a page of mathematical paper may be tens minutes per line. OReilly is famous of programming books, some of those are not much easier. Examples are not for just reading and there is no way to finish 200 pages book full of examples in 5 hours.
> Things like substack attempt to use alternative models, but that is limited imho, their market size is not that big.
Not every businesses need to generate billions or even more than double digit millions, I think lots of people/teams will be happy to find market which can make them 1-100k/month.
Problem with unbundling groups might be convenience of interaction inside FB, if unbundled not many people may want to sign up and interact.
