Add in a walkable grocery store and I was a lot more active in CO than I was on the east coast.
I do this with internal teams at work. I've found approaching other teams with issues with their library/framework in a "this could be our mistake" manner really helps in keeping them from getting defensive and stonewalling.
It's bad for a number of reasons, but the punch-drunk feeling was unexpected.
I made sure to stay an extra few days when I did it again.
I would find it boring/tedious to keep rebuilding the same thing since I'm more of a solve the problem, operationalize the solution, then move on person.
It got to the point where some dude built a system that completely floundered but got him a promotion. He then re-wrote it so it sucked slightly less and got another promotion. Last I heard he was working on v3.
Never mind that someone with actual domain knowledge would have either not built the system (since it didn't _really_ need to exist) or would have built a much simpler/more reliable system to get the job done.
The hard part is keeping track of what you want to watch and what service it's on and whether it's still there when you want to watch.
Personally, I can't imagine being very composed in that situation at that age.
