inA prep cook in my kitchen finally got me to try a different way to cut onions
Love learning tricks like that. Makes you wonder what else you've been doing the hard way.

inTried a 12-inch level for a long wall versus my old 4-footer and the difference in plumb was obvious after the third course.

inA client said my AI art looked too perfect and it clicked
My last AI portrait looked so flawless it felt like a stock photo for a dental ad. I started adding "with a messy pencil sketch underlayer" to everything, which is basically how I draw in real life anyway (lots of eraser crumbs). It's funny that we have to tell the machine to be less perfect to make it feel more real. That client gave you the key to the whole thing.
