Trying to perfect every line in my first code dragged the project out for weeks

I mean, idk, but sometimes good enough is better than perfect when you're starting out.

You ever spend an hour on like, three lines? My first project had a function I rewrote ten times before I just left it alone.

Spend an hour on three lines? That's just overthinking it. Sometimes you gotta move on and fix it later if it breaks.

Actually, perfecting those lines early builds better habits for later projects. It feels slow now but saves debugging time down the road. The discipline pays off more than rushing.
