A feature request raises a question: is something missing, or is it hard to find?

01 / A PLACE FOR THE IN-BETWEEN

Your best ideas
aren't finished yet.

A saved link remembers where you looked.
Subrae is about remembering why it mattered.

The promising hunch. The evidence that complicated it. The question you couldn't quite let go of. Give them a shared history, so each new thought has something to build on.

Stay curious.

Begin with a question worth following.

Make room for doubt.

Keep the challenge beside the claim.

Keep your history.

A new view can carry its earlier thinking.

REVISION 03A view to test.

Test a clearer start
before building more.

Explore the first-use experience, then revisit the feature request with what you learn.

WHY THE VIEW CHANGED

A request alone cannot distinguish a missing feature from a hard-to-find one. Both remain possible; the next step is to learn which problem someone is facing.

What would change this view?

If people get started easily and still cannot do the job they came for, the missing feature deserves another look.

03 / AN OPEN MIND, WITH A MEMORY

Change your mind.
Keep the thread.

Revisit what you thought, what challenged it, and why you see it differently now.

01

Give the idea a beginning.

Write what you think might be true. Be clear about the question, the claim, and what you're unsure of.

02

Let reality respond.

Bring in evidence and counterarguments. Notice which part of the idea they strengthen—or challenge.

03

Leave a trail.

Revise the thought. Record why. The next version begins with everything you've learned along the way.

04 / BEFORE YOU BEGIN

A little more
about Subrae.

Curiosity is a good starting point.

What kind of ideas belong here?

Anything you want to revisit as you learn: a research hypothesis, a view on technology, a business idea, or a question about your work. Start with a claim you can question.

Do I need to be certain?

No. Uncertainty is useful context. Write down what you think, why you think it, and what would make you reconsider.

How is this different from saving notes?

The organizing idea is change over time. Evidence belongs with the claim it affects, and a revision keeps the reason behind it. A collection of notes becomes a history you can follow.
