Never played FreeArcade, but me and quite a few of my University friends used to go the the Uni Library with every intention of doing a full days work and end up spending half the time on mousebreaker. Those were the days!

“Scope creep is real when the client gets actively involved”

Or when there are multiple stakeholders involved. It’s a never ending stream of making the logo bigger, then reducing the size.

How AI is making us Dumber.

Fully agree. The brain is a muscle like any other, so atrophy is no different. I’ve started playing chess and a few other simple brain exercises.

I do hope indie blogging makes a comeback. When the only objective of the post is for the author to ‘scream into the void’, it’s refreshing in this day and age.

In your case, perhaps a shopping cart could increase conversion, perhaps not.

While an e-commerce solution is not always needed, there’s a good chance that a very simple shop cart facility will convert more than an email link, for certain types of products.

“There's an entire universe of difference between someone who takes martial arts classes a few times a week, and an actual trained fighter”

To echo this, I have professional competitive experience in Muay Thai (and also in some other combat disciplines). My training schedule during this time was 2 x daily, 6 days a week with a 4km run before each session.

With this consistent routine training alongside other young, hungry and often gifted high level fighters, it takes something special for a hobbyist to join in a Pro session and not look ‘out of place’.

If you are training right, every angle, strike, and position is carefully mapped into muscle memory even for when there is nothing left in the tank.

Non competitive Martial arts are superb for confidence, but be very sure, there is (like you said) a universe of difference between an active professionally training fighter and a talented hobbyist.

Pandemic lockdown- I was surprised to see December 2021 shows quite a few gatherings.
