A tiny win from Mumbai that made my week before coffee

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.

Part of me wanted the fancy version with all the tools. The better version was boring: one notebook, one reminder, and a willingness to be clumsy with the prototype for a while.

I am mostly here for the follow-up. Honestly, the simplest version wins for me.

I am stealing that phrase.

I do not have a strong take, but the mumbai detail is useful. It sounds small, but the conversation matters.
