I was grabbing adhesive at the store last week when this retired guy struck up a chat about the vinyl in my cart. He said he laid floors for decades and told me about just walking around in socks to feel for low spots before measuring. It seemed kind of odd, but I gave it a shot on my next install, and it really helped catch a problem area. Now I always do that quick sock walk first, even if the plans look fine on paper.
It's supposed to be smart, but now I have overflowing garbage every week.

Ignore the manual on lube. Go by feel. Twenty years, no seized motor. Unpopular take.
My old bike manual said the same, but feel always worked.
Just realized my best digital art came when I ignored the clock
Used to rush but deadlines kill my good ideas.
