TIME read the instructions behind Meta's Muse: it updates a file on each of its 4 million users every hour, with notes like "this user responds better to short nudges after 10 PM". So here is that file, built from public posts only. Starting with my own.

Instruction 01
This user responds better to short nudges between 5 PM and 8 PM.
Muse's real instructions contain the line "this user responds better to short nudges after 10 PM" (TIME, Oct 6). This is the same line, computed from @levelsio's own replies: 80% of them land in that 3-hour window.
