Yeah it's a nice boost for sure, but is that really how you measure being on the right path? Like, one comment from one person at a show. What happens next week when nobody says anything, or some other guy points out a flaw you missed. Basing your confidence on praise from others seems shaky. Feels better to just know your own work is solid for your own reasons, you know? The compliment is just a nice bonus on a good day.

How bad did that jolt actually feel? I mean, I got a real nasty tingle off a filter cap in an old amp once and it totally surprised me, my whole arm went weird for a second. It definitely makes you a lot more careful after that happens. Now I'm paranoid and check everything twice with the meter.

Trying to be thrifty like that once, but my sad broth looked (and tasted) like dishwater. My mom's tricks never stuck with me, honestly.

Seriously though erich79, how bad is it now? I get being tired of it after a hard keto run, but is it the actual taste or just total burnout? My sister went through that and eventually could handle almond flour in small doses again, like in those dense pancakes.
