5 tips to build a coding memory palace 🏰 ➕⌨️

Ten years ago I went to a seminar about memorization techniques. The meeting was held in one of this old building that have soul. It was 20 degree Celsius outside making it a perfect, relaxing day.

The facilitator was a rather calm person sharing with us some memorization techniques like they were generous gifts and in deed they were, as I have learned five years later…

There I was, walking through corridors of an ancient brick castle. There were red torches on the walls. I have entered a rather big audience room, with rows of tables. I came to the first on the left. It was piled with blue broccolis. Second table legs were in the shape of unicorns.

Down the room I saw a flying cat with the face of Dwight Schrute from The Office. The cat was blowing fireballs everywhere.

I began to smile.

From all possible explanations of what it was, one seems to be obvious, I was delirious or/and intoxicated. Or was I?

The seminar took place at 4pm since I took a day off I was able at last to organise all my new photos. I have copied to a secondary backup disk, and as usual, encrypted it with a pin code. Something I was doing once a year. I have blessed that day while walking through the castle later.
