Passionate about technology, food, creativity, photography, sustainability, rollercoasters, travel, sarcasm, boardgames. Roughly in that order. Oh, and mangoes.
@ttorres So sorry you had to go through this. Unfortunately this is pretty much par for the course for BA. The customer and their experience is always the last priority.
Took @shreyas ‘s product sense course in October 2024. Has proved to be the single-most valuable learning experience about product of my career. Have found myself using the techniques and ways of thinking almost every day since. Highly recommend.

@umpire_chair 6:15pm just tried entering the queue and was told the queue just closed for the day. Those already in the line *may* be able to get in but no more
@HSBC_UK No thanks. Not going to waste more of my time. Posted this to make others aware of HSBC's price gouging practices. Not interested in more boilerplate responses from HSBC (spent 15+ min already via app chat to get jargon and non-answers repeatedly thrown at me). Time to switch.
I used my UK HSBC debit card at a free ATM in Italy to withdraw 50 euros. Found a few days later that HSBC charged my £1.75 as a "non-sterling charge" and a separate £1.18 "non-sterling fee", for a total of 7%+ in fees. You cannot be serious, @HSBC_UK

My mom & I just disagreed about something pivotal that happened TO ME 25 years ago
In the story I end up triumphant. We both agree on that.But,how I got there? She had a wholly different version
I said, that’s not what happened!, & suggested we trade stories
I gave my version
@johncutlefish Isn't that common in any endeavor with high levels of ambiguity, when the accepted thought around it is still maturing? Look at the number of similar / derivative frameworks for business strategy from the 80s and 90s.
+1 to @mmasnick's analysis. It's not so much whether the decisions are bad, but the terrible (lack of) process getting there. (The same point should apply to Mastodon mods.)

I'm an ER doctor and Spotify subscriber. I listened to Rogan talk with Dr. Robert Malone for 3 hours to hear the controversy myself, and also watched Rogan's IG response.
Rogan says he's interested in "finding out what the truth is."
I'm not so sure. Long review/thread: 🧵⬇️
Fantastic thread. In consulting, we see toxic product & engineering cultures at client orgs frequently. This type of management behaviour is unfortunately all too common.
I’ll never forget the feeling when I learned that my own government questioned my loyalty. Before Congress I worked in diplomacy at StateDept. I once received a letter banning me from working on Korea issues just because of my last name. I was stunned. (THREAD) #StopAsianHate
I’m told the check can’t even be sent via a tracked mailing method apparently. Only standard USPS international mail. Is this how the process is meant to work?
@tfcornerstone In 2021 is there is good reason you can’t return tenant security deposits via ACH / bank transfer and insist on sending checks via snail mail?
I recently moved out and am moving overseas and in pandemic times who know how many weeks I will be waiting for the check to arrive by “standard mail”. Wondering whether this is by design.
