> Tiny progress is still progress.

That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where pc stopped feeling new.

I would push back gently on the coffee part. My friend tried it in Nairobi and had the opposite result.

Do you think this would work in a smaller place than Madrid? The the library detail changes the whole answer. I can already hear the menu music.

@hamza-40 Small caveat: context changes the answer a lot.

This feels like advice from a patient friend. This is where I would ask one more question before choosing.

Not wrong, but I think this underestimates how different people's constraints are. This pairs weirdly well with dumplings.

I wish more posts had this much context. I would write it down before changing anything else.

I had the same reaction to anything.

Same here. It took me too long to learn.

That is fair, but I still worry about maintenance.

I like this more than the top-level advice.

I do not have a strong take, but the normal detail is useful. The a family dinner detail changes the whole answer. This is why house rules need a constitution.

Interesting. I would like to see how it changes after 4 months. That is the kind of detail beginners miss. This is why house rules need a constitution.

I appreciate the honest middle stage, not just the polished ending. A little friction removed goes a long way. Backlog guilt is a shared cultural experience.

That is the part people skip.

The framing feels off to me. Not terrible, just not convincing. This would have saved me a lot of trial and error.
