Post-Mortem about my [reply](https://discuss.criticalfallibilism.com/t/theory-of-constraints-introduction/2030/16) to ET’s mini essay on the topic, [Theory of Constraints Introduction](https://discuss.criticalfallibilism.com/t/theory-of-constraints-introduction/2030):

> The decision could easily harm the company because maybe the person covers for a lot of employees and firing them now has the owner lose someone important. Maybe firing them was bad cuz now there’s less manpower in the company. Less manpower can make things harder for everybody.

I think the first sentence could use some commas, but I forgot how to use them on the fly.

Post mortem about why I don’t use commas correctly:

Why didn’t I use commas in that long sentence?

I think it’s cuz I remember subordinating conjunctions not needing a comma usually. I got that from a [curi.us](http://curi.us) article. I also thought tho that if I wrote enough words with a subordinating conjunction then i will have to use a comma. I just don’t think about the amount of words needed.

Why remember? Why don’t you know it?

Cuz I kind of remember the rules and when the sentences get complicated, I default to not using commas at all. I don’t practice it enough consciously while making CF posts

End of Post-mortem

I thought I found a part of my reply that had too many words and I wanted to post mortem about it. I can’t find it

Post-mortem about that:

Why can’t I find the other wordy sentence in my reply?

Cuz I didn’t write down when I found it yesterday

Why didn’t you write it down?

Cuz I was tired and I didn’t think until now that I could use this topic to reflect about post-mortems when I want to.

Why can’t you find the wordy sentence now?

Cuz I couldn’t find it when I was looking for it in a quoted format. I think the quoted format left the wordy sentence out cuz I probably hid it in a post-mortem.
