The author should provide more context around this article. From the title I assumed this was about software solution design, like architecture or something. But reading through the article I get the impression the author is referring to UI design (still not 100% sure though).
The core advice of the article seems relevant and useful to both of those types of design.

Great article -- I'm going set aside some time with a notebook and pencil today and give this a try.
I'm not sure I agree with the left brain/right brain, analytical and logical vs creative and emotional dichotomy. I think good design work can be just as analytical as it is creative. I think it has to be when it comes to UI and UX.
I have this same issue, and the same with `jq` and `GNU Parallel`.
When you need them you need them, and nothing else quite works, but I have to re-learn them every time.
I outsource most of my esoteric `jq` syntax questions to ChatGPT. It does really well with them, usually turning up solutions that I'd struggle to munge together from several different google search results.
I wonder how ChatGPT would do with focussed pandoc requests.
Moveable looks like a super full-featured library for this kind of thing https://daybrush.com/moveable/
Maybe this: https://interactjs.io/
I cannot believe how ironically confusing it sounds to use, given that they claim it is "designed from the ground up to be easy to use".
