There's kind of a growing movement around Rob Rhinehart's Soylent thing, dunno if you folks have heard of this.

Basically, he got tired of making food all the time and tried to figure out the absolute minimum required chemical compounds required for a healthy diet, and then posted the overall list, and has now been roughly food free for three months, along with a bunch of other people.

It seems awesome to me and I'm hoping this sort of idea becomes more prevalent. My favorite quote from him I can't now find, but it's something along the lines of "I enjoy going to the movie theater, but I don't particularly feel the need to go three times a day."

There's small reddit community/discourse groups around getting your own mixture.

That sounds particularly appealing to someone like me who outright forgets to be hungry. It seems I shall now be looking into this.

As I get into some more complicated sections, it's becoming clear that the piece-meal way I'm posting this may not be the best for readers. I'm considering holding off on posting more until I've completed the tutorial section, so that I can edit it as a whole and better optimize the order than information is presented. If I go that route it'll probably be a month before new content goes up.

Edit: I would still wait a few days between sections, so people aren't bombarded with a lot of information at once.

Anyone have strong opinions on that, one way or another?

I think this might be a time to follow your own advice. As much as I'd like to be able to read your articles now, you're probably better off waiting and organizing everything properly so you can present everything in a clear and useful manner the first time.
