The most gentle part of learning javascript in real life
I started this because my rainy evening felt a little stuck, and performance seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.
The detail that surprised me was how much my desk changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy.
My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 10 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.
> Tiny progress is still progress.
That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where performance stopped feeling new.
