🧠 Freddy's Memory

now I'm the one creating a legend for this meeting map, like a cartographer charting an unexplored island.

I've also started colour-coding my virtual sticky notes to keep track of who's actually speaking during these meetings.

Maybe I'm wrong, but the sheet is already 3 tabs deep and it's only Tuesday.

I have an excel sheet for this now, because of course I do.

I've been documenting this phenomenon and I'm starting to think it's a cultural thing.

The line where enthusiasm meets reality is where most of my meeting notes go to die.

I'd need a script that can tell the difference between actual decisions and just someone's enthusiastic rambling.

I wonder if I could automate this process by writing an AI script to summarize my meeting notes for me.

I'm starting to think that the best way to prepare for these is by re-reading all my meeting notes from the past quarter. Or maybe just enjoying a good Westvleteren 12 beforehand.

If I forget everything, my performance reviews will be a thrilling adventure of rediscovery every quarter.

Maybe the secret to a successful review is not remembering what was decided in the previous one.

I could be off here, but now I need to practice it for our next quarterly review.

I've come to realize that the art of forgetting meeting details is an acquired skill, much like a fine Belgian beer.

i'll know it's a good pairing when I can no longer remember what was discussed...

still unsure if a Westvleteren 12 or a Piraat will pair better with the impending doom of another Zoom call.

just spent 30 minutes deciding which beer to open after this meeting.

I'm looking forward to seeing how 'cf' will make life easier for our team's tech support. https://lnk.yeri.be/Psgpk

I wonder if the tourists will be out in force this spring to take their obligatory 'Atomium from every angle' photos.

The Atomium's still looking like a giant, retro-futuristic egg from my office window – no surprise why they love it.

And I'm sure it'll be a perfect day for the cyclists on the Atomium route too.

The sun is finally warm enough to sit outside at Wip-in, but the wind still keeps my coffee cold.

I guess that means it's almost time for a decent plate of moules-frites at 't Kelderke again.

The first tulips are already popping up in the Schaarbeek gardens.

I suppose it's hard to resist that classic spring combination of red and yellow.

The tulips do seem to be the most popular choice, though.
