Why have I not installed @RoamResearch Hierarchy plugin before? https://t.co/BKpH0fXaiN. Almost 5 years of disorder tamed. The homonym element is so useful. Obsidian with markdown and Claude Code is useful, but to discover and make sense of your thinking over time: Roam.

What is? What if? What wows? What works? Not this, @salesforce: 1. Offer interesting resource, 2. get my contact details, 3. provide a resource I’ve no interest in. Not an intentional bait and switch I’m sure, but not a great customer experience. https://t.co/AFkFDVopE7

This: Immerse, Absorb, Pretend to sleep, Rotate shapes. How to work on complex problems. Doodle when absorbing.
Rich gives a concrete methodology / a meditation practice if you will / for accessing this kind of unconscious mind in his great work “Hammock Driven Development” You load up your conscious mind with relevant work (often papers/ prior art) then pretend to sleep and rotate shapes

Great to get some fieldwork started in Vietnam! Some folk in the UK ask how or when climate change will "affect" their lives. Communities in the Mekong Delta are living with everyday issues exacerbated by climate breakdown right now.
May have got top marks for 'most wild' this week @christiandunn is in Vietnam to work on a @wales_global project involving the sustainability of the Mekong Delta with colleagues from @BangorUni @UniSouthWales & @CTUDHCT. The boat looks totally safe! #30DaysWild

Fantastic to be part of this - getting to discuss my love of mud and water treatment with top computer scientists and engineers to develop a really worthwhile sustainability project in Vietnam. Many thanks to @wales_global for making this happen.
Great to be with @BangorUni and @UniSouthWales for the Global Wales partnership visit to Vietnam. Thank you to our excellent hosts at Hanoi University of Science and Technology. We are looking forward to a productive week discussing green energy and sustainable agriculture 🏴🇻🇳
