Ray Dalio has been sharing his answers to social media questions on a weekly basis in a compiled format.
Unresolvable The public record could not settle it.
Factual: Statements about the present or the past, checked against the record: did they hold up?
What would count as true or false
TRUE: by 2020-05-13, Dalio's official channels (LinkedIn, his website, Twitter/Instagram, newsletter) show more than one dated post compiling his answers to social-media questions, published at roughly weekly intervals. MOSTLY TRUE: compilations were published regularly before that date but not strictly weekly (for example every one to two weeks with gaps). MIXED: only one or two compilations had appeared, so a regular weekly series had barely started. MOSTLY FALSE: he answered questions on social media but did not publish them in a compiled format, or did so only irregularly. FALSE: his channels show no such compiled Q&A posts before 2020-05-13.
Set before the research began.

“So he has been sharing the questions and answers weekly on LinkedIn.”
Reasoning
E2, a pulse2.com article dated 2020-05-25, says Dalio "has been sharing the questions and answers weekly on LinkedIn." E2 gives no dates or count for compilations published before 2020-05-13. E1 covers a single Reddit AMA in 2018, which has nothing to do with a weekly compiled series. Neither item shows more than one dated compilation at roughly weekly intervals before the claim date, so the criteria cannot be applied.
