[hinkley]

I’m starting to think the deep dive is itself a problem, for reasons of Kernighan’s Law. Stepping away and thinking about other things has helped me find solutions when simply thinking harder about it has not.

Probably because as part of spinning back up I have to summarize for myself where I think I was, and the summary frequently contains the hint I missed. It’s not quite rubber ducking without the duck, and with more time to help others.
