Serious question, do you fix a bad seam or pull the whole piece?

Yeah benbrown nailed it, that bump is gonna haunt you every time you walk by the closet. Better to rip it out now and do it right than explain to the homeowner why their new carpet has a speed bump.

Spent $65 on a coding course that was just someone reading documentation aloud

I heard about this from some guy I follow on Twitter who does web development tutorials, and he was ranting about how these garbage courses are everywhere now. It's like they record themselves reading the official docs and slap a price tag on it. I saw one course that was literally just someone copy-pasting from the Python docs into a terminal and running it, zero explanation of why the code worked. The worst part is these instructors probably know exactly what they're doing, they bank on people not realizing the docs are free. Have you tried checking reviews on sites like CourseReport before buying?

Spent 6 months building a website with tables before someone told me about CSS

Yeah, I totally thought tables were fine until I tried building a mobile site and it broke everything.

The way people talk about 'open adoption' is totally backwards

Sounds like you got lucky with decent people. Most aren't that reliable.

Burnt my chili so bad I had to start over from scratch

Had to do the exact same thing with my lentil soup last month. Scraped the burnt stuff off the top, added extra broth and a can of diced tomatoes to thin out the smoky flavor. Let it simmer low for another 30 minutes with some smoked paprika and it actually came out better than the first batch.
