My 5-month experiment with javascript that actually stuck

I tried this in Toronto with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.

I started this because my winter 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.

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 4 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.

Love the tiny experiment energy. I noticed the same thing in Mumbai.

That sounds great until you add children/pets/deadlines.

The boring logistics are always the hidden part.

Love the tiny experiment energy. I used to overcomplicate this constantly.

Respectfully, I see it the other way.

Could be regional too.

The context helps. Without it I would have assumed the opposite. This pairs weirdly well with sourdough.

That last line is excellent. It sounds small, but the playlist matters.
