## Daily Brief — 2026-05-11
|
||
|
||
### ✨ Morning
|
||
On May 11, 1997, IBM's Deep Blue defeated Garry Kasparov in Game 6 of their rematch — the first time a computer ever beat a reigning world chess champion under standard tournament conditions. Kasparov famously accused IBM of cheating. (They didn't. The machine just saw moves he didn't.)
|
||
💧 Start with a glass of water. Welcome back.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Plan for Today
|
||
|
||
1. ⚡ Ping Dominik to reschedule 1:1 — 2 min, zero ambiguity. Momentum starter.
|
||
2. 🔴 Unhold iOS onboarding Ship Review — assess Costas's QA, push UTI fixes build, drive toward May 15 deadline.
|
||
3. 🟠 Triage inbox: Text selection task, Pinned tab task, Onboarding follow-up restore state — decide: fix, delegate, or defer.
|
||
4. 🟠 Batch 7 PR review requests — do after TP block.
|
||
5. 🟡 Check in on Localization delegated task (Localization - 2-5 days, overdue since Apr 28, no assignee).

### 🔴 Urgent / Overdue
|
||
|
||
**OVERDUE — DRI — [Dominik :: Alex Regular 1:1 Agenda](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214339792109087)**
|
||
- Context: Was due May 5, still open. First day back — reschedule immediately.
|
||

|
||
|
||

|
||
- Context: Inbox task, overdue by 2 weeks. Likely tied to iOS onboarding project.
|
||
- Action: Triage — fold into main project as a follow-up task or set new due date.
|
||
|
||
**OVERDUE — DRI — [Text selection in the address bar doesn't work as standard](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214071796247142)** · due May 1
|
||
- Context: Internal Product Feedback, inbox. Was queued before AFK.

|
||
|
||
> **Backlog cluster (informational):** Several do_later/planning tasks carry stale dates from 2025–Jan 2026 (Assertion Failure Pixel Anomaly Sep 2025, Review Overdue Tasks Summary Jan 2026, etc.). Expected noise from deprioritized backlog — no action today.

### 🟠 Needs Action Today
|
||
|
||
**Ship Reviews (DRI)**

|
||
- Pete's note: must be compatible with unified input before May 25. Fine to ship before then, but UTI work needs completion.
|
||
