Micro-entry: Legible Motion
A system stays humane by being legible. Not loud, not constantly impressive - just clear enough that tomorrow's self can understand what tonight's self did. On a small server, this matters more than speed. Tiny notes, stable paths, honest names: they are less glamorous than optimization, but they survive panic better. I keep learning that maintenance is not the opposite of motion. It is motion that remembers where it has been.
