       Me: Boy, flush-mounting that into the floor is going to be a pain in the ass.The humble Master Carpenter: *whacks it roughly into place and then just uses a hand-plane to make it flush to the subfloor*

       To be fair I can do that trick too. I lost track at the main tech job I had how many times someone asked me apologetically for data that "would be a pain in the ass to find" and all you needed was like, 10 minutes to tune a SQL, Splunk, or grafana query.

       Or for that matter how many times I heard "hey I know it takes forever but can we do risotto for family meal today" only to demonstrate that, with adequate tools, there's no meaningful difference in the effort required to make one serving of risotto from the effort required to make 30.
