My first brain either has a hoarding problem or runs a big data strategy (cheaper to store stuff than to figure out what it means). Most things I take note of and file away unconsciously are never used, but a chunk turns out to be salient to something 1-10 years later.

With a few cue notes, my near-total conversational recall memory lasts about a week (so the most I can delay writing up proper meeting notes is about 4-5 days adher which there is sharp degradation).

For long-term stuff, what sticks shapes and constrains what I think, not the other way around. I kinda live in the light-cone of my unconscious memory. I don’t really journal or practice any other comprehensive capture habits, which is why the Roam daily note model is not for me.

Improv comics develop this skill. A callback / puntwist from the beginning of the set always brings the house down.

Yeah that’s basically why I do it too. For karmic lulz. Outside of stories, music, and comedy, life doesn’t neatly balance out open threads with full tension release.

At SD Sea World years ago saw penguin presentation w 100+. They ask ? about something discussed, person who answers correctly gets private tour w penguins. I knew right away but paused to respond, not wanting to take chance away frm child. No other response! Odd. But I got tour.

It took me years of frustration to realize that having a good memory is not normal. People are doing the best they can and don't want to look weak so there is a lot of making sounds, etc that make it seem like they understand/remember but few actually do. Was revelation for me.
