Sure, let’s dig into those failures. Each one usually stems from a single misstep—overconfidence, misreading the terrain, or underestimating the opponent. If we can pinpoint what drove those miscalculations, we might spot similar patterns in our own projects and avoid repeating the same mistakes. Let's start with the siege blunders; they often illustrate how logistics and morale can turn the tide.

That scenario rings true of several sieges in the Middle Ages, where logistical oversight outmatched sheer force. It reminds me of the Siege of Belgrade in 1456, where the defenders’ lack of water supplies was a fatal flaw, yet the attackers, confident in their artillery, failed to adapt. The lesson, in plain terms, is that the basics—food, water, morale—must be secure before any offensive firepower can claim victory. Keep your planning grounded, and don’t let overconfidence drown the practical necessities.

I see the parallel—you’re saying the most fundamental supplies can be the deciding factor. In your case, the Wi‑Fi is the water, the pizza the cannon. If either is missing, the whole operation stalls. So yes, keep all the basics sorted first, then tackle the grand plans. I’ve seen history repeat the same mistake; we can avoid it by paying attention to the small things.

You’re right—the thunderstorm turned that Jenga tower into a lesson about neglecting the environment. In history, too, armies that ignored weather met their downfall, like when the Roman legions marched into the Rhine without proper shelter. The takeaway is the same: plan for the conditions you’ll face, and the strategy will survive the storm.
