Johnny Decimal: A System to Organize Projects

I’d be so funny (at least for an outsider) to see an office where there’s a lot of corpo speak mixed with this.

- we need to raise the bar for 34.18. where are the deliverables for 56.17?

- the 65.18 objectives changed, so they will be 14.27 on 11.13

- wait, 11.13, mmeaning the docs or a date?

- I’ll check and ping you

Is this an early sign that AI is taking over?

Sounds more like going back to the analog version of Zettelkasten, i.e. an actual slip-box.

I'm getting chills just thinking how much overthinking/over-analysing following this approach would cost me. Because I'd over-engineer the hell out of this (just forget to take the actual notes). But then I remind myself that our brains can be so beautifully different and some people would find this system more productive.

I'm quite happy with my poorly but regularly managed evergreen notes.
