inPaid $60 for a "silent" mechanical keyboard and my mic picks up every single clack
I used to roll my eyes at people who said no mechanical switch is truly mic silent, figured they just had bad mics or bad technique. Then I got a "quiet" board myself and ate my words real fast, because the mic does not care about your marketing box, it cares about the sound your fingers make when they bottom out. The trick nobody tells you is that the clack is only half the switch, the other half is you slamming keys all the way down, so even a silent switch gets loud if you type heavy. What actually helped me was o rings plus a desk mat plus not hammering the keys, and even then my team could still hear it a little. If you need truly clean audio on calls, the office mush keyboard is honestly the safe play, or you mute when you type. Maybe try lubed silent linears with a foam mod if you want to stay mechanical, but do not expect the mic to hear nothing.

inThree days to learn what a 30 second rest should've told me
I mean, is this really a "ruin a whole batch" situation though? You learned something real about how bread works, that's not a loss, that's just the cost of learning. Three days feels like a lot but honestly most people never figure this out at all and just keep baking flat loaves forever. Cutting too hot is such an easy mistake because the outside looks done and your brain says go. I'd say you got off cheap. My first few tries at anything food related were way worse and I didn't even get a lesson out of it.
