Never tell your family that you've made changes to the network. Suddenly every little thing becomes the fault of the change you've made regardless of it making sense or not.
I changed our DNS provider and suddenly a site throwing a 429 is related to that change.

Indeed. I bought my family a new router to fix internet issues, then for years every internet issue was suddenly my fault. Years later I accidently tapped an unknown coax amplifier while moving out and the thing fuarrrkin disintegrated -- simultaneous revelation of the root issue and schadenfreude in one.

I one time kicked a stranger off our network and only found out later that it was a guest. I was only able to find out because I told them.

Similar 'phenomena' in IT in general.

gotta leave yourself ez problems to "fix" later (like those 'sleep' statements programmers shave 50-100ms off of each time they go in to 'optimize')
