World Notes · by Ngozi Bello · 2026-09-14
I tried doing science the boring way and it worked with a surprising constraint
A few notes from my attempt:
- keep the first step visible
- remove one annoying decision
- celebrate the boring repeat
This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. global got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.
I started this because my rainy evening felt a little stuck, and global seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.
