C'est avec une profonde affliction que j'ai appris le rappel à Dieu de Serigne Cheikh Tidiane Cissé, Khalife général de Diamal Santhie, survenu des suites d'un accident de la circulation.
Je m'incline devant sa mémoire et présente mes condoléances émues à sa famille, à la communauté de Diamal Santhie et à l'ensemble des fidèles.
Que Dieu l'accueille dans Sa sainte miséricorde.
🎤 I stopped writing my own investor decks.
Last Friday evening I closed my laptop, walked to an empty park near the office, and just talked for 50 minutes — the numbers, the risks, and how we'll level up the business based on what customers keep telling us.
A brainstorm of one.
By the time I sat back down, my @ComuAI_ device had turned the ramble into a structured doc. My capital markets team took it from there — under an hour, with AI, final deck done. Ready for the right moment.
Taking @Waterdrop_Inc from 0 → IPO taught me this:
A deck is never the thinking. It's the packaging.
No real thought behind it, no soul — just hollow slides and wasted time.
🚶 Walk. 🎙️ Talk. Catch the spark the moment it hits — let AI record, distill, and format.
Founders — when did you last have a great idea sitting at a desk? 👇
💻 I ran an experiment at our weekly all-hands last week: zero laptops.
We always open with a round-robin of updates. I looked up mid-round: half the room heads-down, typing. Eyes glued to screens. No reactions. No eye contact.
In the room, but not IN the room.
So we tried something: one meeting, everyone fully present. No screens. Just listening and talking.
The first five minutes felt strange. Then something shifted — with nothing to hide behind, people started reacting. Interrupting. Building on half-formed ideas out loud. The quietest people had the best ideas.
Here's the thing nobody tells you: note-taking isn't documentation. It's a tax on attention. The person typing isn't fully in the meeting — they're acting as a slow, expensive microphone.
"But we'll forget everything!" — that's the easy part. One small device from @ComuAI_ on the table turns the whole conversation into a recap, decisions, and action items before we're back at our desks. 📝
Old way: half the room talks, half the room types.
New way: everyone thinks out loud. AI keeps the minutes.
Every meeting runs this way now.
My only regret: not trying it a year earlier. 🎙️
🚨 Jude Bellingham to Real Madrid, here we go! Agreement in place with Borussia Dortmund. It’s done deal.

Bellingham will sign six year deal valid until June 2029 agreed in April.
Medical tests already booked as Madrid wanted to get it done this week.
