Markus digs into the engineering behind it: true solar time calculated to the minute from the latitude and longitude of a birthplace, a proprietary algorithm built by ten masters working with data engineers, and a free tool suite that has drawn over 194,000 users.

The company is called SSEHADA, and what they are doing with a very old practice is, I think, quite a bit more interesting than it first appears. SSEHADA is operated by AbleCity, based in the Yeongdeungpo district of Seoul, and led by Kwon Jun Seok. The name itself is a lovely piece of branding. Sse-hada is a Kore…","meta_description":"SSEHADA https://ssehada.com This episode visits SSEHADA, the Seoul based platform operated by AbleCity that brings saju, the thousand year old East Asian…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":643,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/next-biz-thing-unveiling-tomorrow-s-business-6794632/episodes/next-biz-thing-409-ssehada-com/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/next-biz-thing-unveiling-tomorrow-s-business-6794632/next-biz-thing-409-ssehada-com.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
