A gentle rant about learning and expectations from a family dinner

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.

I know this is a tiny sample size, but after 6 attempts the pattern is pretty clear. When I keep the setup simple, I actually follow through.

There is probably a middle ground here. It reminds me of a very specific conversation near a family dinner.

The conclusion is too broad, but the example is interesting. The social part surprised me too.

The family angle is what sold me. The a trailhead detail changes the whole answer.
