ALT Simple labeled diagram titled SQ-6 night: bad DI hum, then write the phantom map. Three rows. Bass hum at worship practice: old DI humming loud, then swap unused violin DI, then hum gone and reset bass gain to 50 dB. 48V phantom rules: piano DI and uke mic need it, guitars hate it (dirty signal), write which channels get 48V. Software-defined board: softkeys and scenes in one head, tribal setup breaks on Sunday, Notion docs plus training pipeline.

ALT Simple labeled diagram titled Murphy's rule #2: the thing you don't check is the thing that fails. Three rows. Car-ride story, Lantern Night: it worked last year, then dry wick and leaked oil, then that's on me, check on the first cold day. Boeing Model 299, Oct 30 1935: gust lock left engaged, then stall right after takeoff, then written checklists for takeoff, flight, landing. Navy: getting a ship underway, too much to trust to memory, pre-underway checkoff list.

ALT Simple labeled diagram titled The brown M&M test. Top row, Van Halen tour rider per David Lee Roth: long tech rider with no brown M&Ms in the middle, check the backstage bowl, brown one found means line-check the whole production. Bottom row, same idea for an AI agent: long instructions with one tiny checkable line buried inside, check the report, check line missing means it skimmed, check everything. Note: a present check line doesn't prove it read everything; a missing one proves it didn't.
