My brain is.... complicated.

MindMaps work well for me - publishing them, converting them - genuinely a good use of AI as turning the explosion of ideas into a digestable whitepaper or strategy doc can take hours or even days - take this one - even the simplified version of this is huge - they are all valid points but distilling....

Mindmaps and Graphs work for my brain - but not great for publishing - but Im looking at starting to publish some of these - free to anyone - completely open - these are my opinions - they are my thoughts and how I turn reality into risk and into plans - if I publish these, via obsidian and into Quartz I can maintain the mindmap / graph quality (I think) while also making the individual points accessible.

Anyone interested in it?

Apologies Cyberr but I’ve distracted your CMO this weekend - normal service will resume shortly.

It’s been craaaazy busy with priority zero issues recently (they had so many P1s they invented P0)

But this is the long weekend of Silverstone - British Grand Prix, tent, stupidly expensive everything but most importantly switching off - been so busy lately I’ve barley been able to keep track of what day it is.

But now?

It’s race day. (All weekend)

Racing, amazing girl, tent that is too hot and vodka that is warm - but I can live with that. Everything except P-1 will wait until Monday afternoon.
