A readable starting point on Morse code after 8 tries
This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. science got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.
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.

That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where history stopped feeling new.
The detail that surprised me was how much a neighborhood park changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy.
