This worked for me, but it may not work for you. And you could end up deleting ALL of your Apple Notes. So, caveat emptor.

This was really scary to do! Also lost all the creation dates on my apple notes. But it's now been a couple of weeks without disk space growth, so I think it's fixed.

You'll know you have this issue if you find that iCloud reports a MUCh smaller disk space than your Settings -> General -> Storage

Elaine May then we talked about SCRUM and some of the downsides in the way it's practiced.

It was a great conversation, hope you learn a lot from it!

Elaine was an early agile practitioner, using it in very non-agile environments! She wrote about using agile methods *five years before the agile manifesto*. She taught me about a concept she calls change budgets. And shared how to deal with critics and naysayers.
