    I'm questioning what the purpose is of pushing it at this point in the project lifecycle. It may not have a fancy website but it is making flashy marketing claims in that readme. H…

    Having a timer is maybe not so much the problem, but there's no reward here for doing early words quickly and no appreciation for the fact that difficulty is not linear. Would be n…

    Or to look at it another way, they're perfectly happy to let you stand in a queue, outside, on the runway, in the cold/heat, waiting for them to unload/load the plane that has just…
