inThought variable fonts were overkill for my 4 weight icon set, then a user asked for a thin version
340kb to 28kb for 60 icons seems like a lot of savings for something nobody was really complaining about. I've hand-drawn sets of 80 plus icons at 3 weights and shipping all the files together never broke 200kb even before gzip. Maybe worth it if you plan to add more weights later, but calling it a big win for one person asking for thin feels like a stretch.

inSpent 4 hours chasing a rattle in my Corolla that turned out to be a $2 clip on the heat shield
My dad once spent three weekends and about 40 bucks in gas driving around trying to find a squeak in his Tacoma. Took the dash apart twice, replaced the blower motor, the whole nine. Turned out to be a pen wedged under the passenger seat rail. A pen. I still give him crap about it at every family cookout. Meanwhile I once pulled a whole wheel off just to find out the lug nut was sitting loose in the hubcap making the noise. We're all out here losing our minds over pocket change and loose pens.

inCustomer asked me to hide the keypad behind a bookshelf, here is what happened next
Man that is the classic install regret right there. Hiding a panel looks clean until a guest, a sitter, or a half awake husband needs to punch in a code fast. I have seen guys bury the thing behind a stack of moving boxes or at the back of a closet shelf so you need a ladder and a flashlight just to reach it while the siren is screaming. The Scottsdale deal could have been a 30 second disarm but it turned into a full on cop response because the reset was behind a bookshelf and nobody knew which book.
