inThe apology tour math on that podcast host isn't adding up
Man that spreadsheet thing is real, I've got a whole folder in my brain for that too. Watched this food blogger in Seattle do the same dance, sorry in 2022 then again last year with almost the exact same words about "growth" and "listening". The only thing that ever changed my mind was when one of them actually gave back the money they took from a small vendor and put the policy in writing for everyone to see. That was six months ago and I still tune in, but barely, and I check every single time before I hit play. Actions are cheap talk, receipts are the only thing that counts now.

inSpent 2 days on a missing semicolon, turns out it was a hidden character
Remember that time I spent 4 hours hunting down a bug that turned out to be a space character? Yeah, that was me. I even rewrote the whole function from scratch before realizing the original was fine, just cursed. It's like the universe punishes you for copy pasting code from random Stack Overflow posts at 2am. I swear my editor shows invisible characters now as a permanent paranoia thing. Honestly, I think half my gray hairs are from encoding issues, not actual hard problems.

inVisited a working forge in Flagstaff, changed my mind about gas vs coal
Hand crank blower" sounds like a workout I'd skip, but now I'm picturing my propane tank feeling jealous in the corner. Guess that old timer's got one thing right, coal's got that stubborn charm.
