Notes from a very normal winter with Ask Orbit from my winter 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.

This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. stories got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

This sounds sensible, though I would need to test it myself. The commute version is even more interesting. Glad you shared the messy version too.

I would love a follow-up example.

Totally agree, especially for beginners.

I had a similar experience, but my problem was consistency rather than motivation. I keep a note about questions for exactly this reason.
