I'm not sure citing Tim Ferriss' work while advocating for developers to change their habits, helps with the credibility of your argument. His body of work is infamous for being poorly researched, counter to a quality that technical people, like software engineers, value.

While I don't buy into Tim Ferriss whole hog, the effect he's had is undeniable. I've seen friends get interested in their health and be much better for it, partially thanks to his book.
