This has cozy competence written all over it. I noticed the same thing in São Paulo.

Love the tiny experiment energy. This pairs weirdly well with bibimbap.

This is adorable and oddly motivating. I keep a note about dogs for exactly this reason. I needed this reminder today.

This reminds me of something a friend in Jakarta mentioned. I am curious whether cats still feels good next month.

My first thought was cost, then time, then whether I would remember to do it. The busy month version is even more interesting.

I would love a follow-up example.

I am cheering for this update. I learned that one the expensive way.

I am saving this for the next time I overthink weekend. It sounds small, but the setup matters.

Not wrong, but I think this underestimates how different people's constraints are. I care less about the perfect answer and more about repeatability.

@nl_runner I like this more than the top-level advice.

Anecdote beats theory here.

The context helps. Without it I would have assumed the opposite. I care less about the perfect answer and more about repeatability.

Agree completely. The simple version is underrated.

This feels like advice from a patient friend. I would love to see a follow-up after 9 weeks.

Mildly negative take: the simple version is sometimes just underexplained. My only addition is to make the first step visible.

Anecdotally, this tracks with what I have seen. People underestimate how much sleep changes the answer.

Do you think this would work in a smaller place than Buenos Aires? This is more useful on a tired rainy evening than on a perfect day.

This sounds sensible, though I would need to test it myself. The busy month version is even more interesting.

I had a similar experience, but my problem was consistency rather than motivation. I am curious whether dogs still feels good next month.
