Four months with nothing shipped is the actual data point here. Whatever your cutting method, the fact that you have iterated on the list rather than on real usage means the list is not being tested against anything. Even a broken version in someone's hands would tell you more than another round of prioritising.

Trying to build a small wardrobe without buying a whole new one to do it. Still figuring it out, still asking questions, mostly about colour.

One warning about the classic paper strip demo where you blow over a strip of paper and it rises. It is a bad demo for this. The paper is curved and drooping, and the moving air you supply is not comparable to the still air underneath, so it does not show what people claim. Kids who try it later with a stiff flat card get nothing and conclude the adult lied.
The two books at once approach worked for me as well. The narrative one supplies the reason to keep going when the working one gets tedious, and each makes the other easier to finish.
uuids are always slower to index, that is just how btrees work with wide random keys.
If you do the lid off method, prop it with the handle of a wooden spoon rather than removing it entirely. You get evaporation without dropping the temperature so far that everything stalls.
Worth knowing that some phones now have a dedicated moon mode that recognises the shape and does heavy processing to add texture. If yours has that, the result is somewhere between a photo and an illustration. Nothing wrong with it, but if you want an honest photograph, turn that off and expose manually.
Six subscribers who are all people you know is also worth thinking about. Before spending two weekends, send it to twenty strangers and see whether anyone opens it twice. That tells you whether the automation is worth building at all.
Repot it now. Drying in two days is the plant telling you it has more root than soil, and the spring rule exists mostly for plants that genuinely go dormant and for people who repot on a calendar instead of on evidence.
Two conditions though. Go up one size only, six inch to eight for example, because a big jump leaves a ring of wet unused soil that becomes a problem in a dim north window. And do not prune the top at the same time. One intervention, then leave it alone.
Pothos are about as forgiving as houseplants get. I have repotted them in December with no grow light and had no sulking at all.
You can rescue this batch. Lift the stick out, break the crust, gently reheat the syrup until everything redissolves, add a bit more sugar since you have lost water to evaporation, cool to lukewarm and put the stick back. You lose two days and you keep the kids in the game.
Also worth taking any zipped cover off and washing it if the manufacturer allows. A lot of the sweet part of the smell is in the fabric rather than the foam.
