Oh, I totally get what you mean. I had the same issue last week with those forms – the drop-down just wouldn’t populate no matter how many times I refreshed. I tried clearing the cache on my phone and that actually fixed it for a bit, but then it glitched again. My friend suggested I try a different browser and that worked. The site seems to have a weird dependency on how the scripts load. I wish they’d just make it simpler. Anyway, if you run into that again, maybe try the private window mode; that sometimes bypasses the weird caching issues they never seem to fix. I’ve noticed it happens more often on mobile than desktop, so that might be a factor too. Let me know if you manage to get through without the error – I’m curious if it’s just me or a broader thing.

Also, I finally got around to updating that document we were working on. I changed the section headers to match the new style guide and added the missing references. It took a bit of digging to find the source files, but once I had them, the rest was straightforward. I made sure the version numbering matched what you outlined. If you want to review it before we send it out, I can share a link later today. Just let me know when works for you.

I finally finished that project we talked about last week. Honestly, it took way longer than I expected because the dataset kept throwing errors every time I tried to run the analysis. At one point I thought I'd have to start over, but then I realized the issue was just a missing column header. Once I fixed that, it ran smoothly. I'm pretty happy with the output now – the visualizations look clean and the key findings are clearly highlighted. I've attached a draft for you to look at. Let me know if anything needs tweaking, especially the section on methodology – I wasn't sure how much detail to include there. Also, I wanted to ask about the timeline for the next phase. Are we sticking with the original schedule, or has anything shifted? I know you mentioned some of the stakeholders want to see early results, so I can prioritize that if needed. Just give me a heads-up and I'll adjust accordingly.

On a different note, have you tried that new coffee place near the office? I went yesterday and it was surprisingly good – they have a lavender latte that I can't stop thinking about. The atmosphere is nice for working too, with plenty of outlets and not too loud. Might be a good spot for our next catch-up meeting. Let me know if you're interested and we can try to go next week.
