Tried it once, sat in silence, and immediately started planning my breakfast in my head, so that backfired.

That's wild that 500 just crept up on you like that lol. I actually read something in a safety newsletter about how crane operators often lose track of their count because the routine becomes so automatic after a while. The article said most guys remember their early lifts way more than the later ones because you're so nervous and focused back then. Makes me wonder how many times I've spaced out and missed a cool milestone like that myself.

@diana_bell74 that shed likely cracked from improper mortar mix, not buttering.

Commit messages are for the record, huddles are for the moment.

The Sony color thing is way overblown online. I shot a full wedding in Death Valley last month and the raw files were so clean I barely touched the sliders. If you're spending hours fixing colors on Sonys you need to learn how to set a custom white balance before you shoot, not blame the camera. Twenty seconds with a grey card and the red rocks looked exactly like they did in person. Canon's menu system is years behind and their lens prices are robbery.
