C’est la même personne qui avait déjà [partagé](/david/2021/03/15/) une [autre expérience chouette](https://tinyprojects.dev/projects/mailoji) ([cache](/david/cache/2021/45af171610f986077420b27c2da46ec1/)). J’aime bien le fait que ça soit moins technique que [ce que proposait Karl](https://www.la-grange.net/2021/09/27/brievement) ([cache](/david/cache/2021/a788656928c6dc9e5313e3548fd1349b/)). Et moins il y a de technique… moins ça gèle :-).

En [consignant](/david/2021/10/07/) une idée, j’ai un moyen de m’en rappeler et je m’en libère à la fois. J’ai [besoin](https://nota-bene.org/L-illusion-du-besoin) ([cache](/david/cache/2021/28ee87f803ccadb58dc707bada996443/)) de l’externaliser pour pouvoir y échapper.

Assez contre-intuitif, j’en conviens.
