I finally understand why Science people care about biology from my commute notes
I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.
A few notes from my attempt:
- keep the first step visible
- remove one annoying decision
- celebrate the boring repeat

Excellent timing; I was just thinking about care. Honestly, the simplest version wins for me.

This is the kind of useful internet I still show up for. The Lagos example makes it feel concrete.

You explained the tradeoff really clearly. The Dublin example makes it feel concrete.
