## Daily Brief — 2026-05-30 (Saturday)
### ✨ Morning
On May 30, 1971, NASA launched Mariner 9 toward Mars. It became the first spacecraft ever to orbit another planet — beating two Soviet probes that arrived weeks later, both of which crashed. A quiet, durable win.
🚶 Take a short walk before diving in.
> Today's focus per weekly plan: weekend — no scheduled work; the plan week is Jun 15. New signals since yesterday: 4 task changes, 4 new comments (Costas + Alessandro raised real questions on Treatment B that need Alex's position before Tue Apple Weekly).
## Plan for Today
1. ⚡ Clear the 5-min [Desktop Browser Feature Owner Survey](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214940335721015) — 4d overdue, anonymous, capped at 5 minutes. Easiest possible momentum starter.
2. 🟠 Draft a response on [Ship AI onboarding winner (Treatment B)](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158955) addressing Alessandro's "ship mid-experiment vs wait for sample size" question and Costas's "iPhone-only + iPad spin-up at O-N" question. Even a "leaning toward option X, let's confirm Tue" is enough — locks in your position before Apple Weekly.
3. 🟢 *(Optional, low-pressure)* Start implementation on [Persist 'You've got this' dialogue](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158950) — TP sub-task due Mon. Getting it moving today removes Monday pressure.
4. 🟢 *(Optional)* Review [PR: macOS Monterrey-only](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215150214975916) — 3d overdue, ~30 min, your AOR.
It's Saturday. Item 1 is the only non-negotiable. Items 24 are "if you want to chip in." Don't force a full work day.

### 🔴 Urgent / Overdue
- **OVERDUE** [DRI] — [Ship AI onboarding winner (Treatment B) [0.5d]](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158955) — due 2026-05-28 (2d).
Context: Two open questions posted May 29 by Costas (iPhone-only, iPad spin-up to be raised at Wed O-N) and Alessandro (mid-experiment ship may compromise tracker-blocker data). Alex posted a status comment on the parent but hasn't responded to either reviewer thread on this sub-task. Alex is the current blocker.
Action: Post on this task: "Leaning toward [option A/B] — let's lock at Tue Apple Weekly. iPad-specific scoping: agree to raise at Wed O-N." Don't wait for Monday — async response sets the meetings up.
- **OVERDUE** [REVIEWER] — [PR: Make our macOS app Monterrey-only](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215150214975916) — due 2026-05-27 (3d).
Context: Diego's Monterrey-only PR is in your AOR; merges next week per his Big Sur post. ~30 min review.
Action: Open the PR, review, comment or approve.
- **OVERDUE** [DRI] — [Desktop Browser Feature Owner Survey](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214940335721015) — due 2026-05-26 (4d).
Context: Anonymous, 5-minute timebox.
Action: Open it, fill it, close it.
- **OVERDUE** [DRI] — [Follow-up: Inline Text Images to TypingTextAnimation](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214040804696193) — due 2026-05-28 (2d).
Context: Onboarding follow-up; related to TP code path. PR #4663 ([executor] Add inline image support) is up as draft, CI ✅, awaiting review.
Action: Take the executor draft out of draft if implementation is complete, or close out the task if PR is sufficient.
**Backlog cluster** (informational, not urgent): 8 aged inbox/planning items totaling 410d / 311d / 255d / 123d / 38d / 29d / 29d / 15d overdue — Tab preview stuck, Duo Grafana, Pixel Anomaly, Overdue Tasks Summary (Jan), two PR Check failing tests, Pinned tab bug, Text selection bug. Captured in weekly plan's Sprint Backlog; pick 12 only if a gap day opens up next week.

**Tech Designs / PFRs / Incidents**: nothing actionable today.
### 🟡 Delegated — Follow Up Needed
- **STALE/OVERDUE** [Privacy Triage: iOS Demo tracker blocking after chat in onboarding](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214965405681675) — assignee Jake Abel, due 2026-05-21 (9d overdue). Blocks the [ON HOLD] iOS Demo tracker project. No movement since 2026-05-20.
Suggested follow-up message (post Monday morning): "Hey Jake — gentle nudge on this triage. It's blocking the demo tracker project from coming off hold. Anything I can unblock for you?"

No "merged-but-not-closed" matches today (all delegated PR rows clean except the stale one above).
