Oh man, that's the worst kind of bug. It's like leaving every faucet in your house on a tiny drip. You don't notice until the basement floods. I see it everywhere now, like not logging out of apps on shared devices or leaving a browser with a hundred tabs open. Small leaks that eventually just break the whole system. Makes you wonder what else we're all leaving open without realizing.

Work felt just as chaotic back then honestly.

My grandpa always taught me to sharpen knives by hand, not with an electric grinder. It's like what @the_shane said, you just get a feel for it that way. Now everything's about speed and that real skill gets lost.

Funny how @keith788's story hits home. I used to laugh at my dad for keeping road atlases, thinking GPS was foolproof. Then my phone died on a backroad trip, and I had to ask for directions at a gas station. Now I've got a state map tucked in my glove box, and it feels like a security blanket.

You mentioned seeing the game respond to inputs was cool, but rock-paper-scissors felt too basic for me to get that real coding feel. I only felt it when I made a trivia game with score tracking and timers, lol. The logic was way harder to get right, but that struggle made it click more for me.
