Finally caught my mistake on stair stringers after 12 years
I was laying out a set of stringers for a deck last Thursday and something just clicked. I always marked my rise and run starting from the top of the board, then cut from there. Turns out I should've been subtracting the tread thickness first, because every set of stairs I've built sat a little high. The homeowner's son is a framer and he watched me for like two minutes before he pointed it out. Has anyone else had that moment where someone half your age teaches you something basic?

Ha! Twelve years high and nobody noticed, who cares.
