@katedpalmer enjoyed your article in the @thesundaytimes this morning. I sent a Christmas present to my dad in Spain last year, but 6 months on @UPS_UK still can't tell me when it'll be delivered, or how I can get it returned. Mixture of covid, Brexit and bureaucracy...

@Sam_L_Shead I think train and tube services have also been reduced, so people that do have to travel are having to squeeze into fewer trains/carriages

[Jonathan Barker (JB) @jb_in_tech]

Such great progress!

🚀 The Status Q3 Report:
- $2.7M in spending this quarter
- $82.1M in total treasury assets
- 10 new hires
- 51 ambassador applications
- Light speed progress of @ethnimbus, @Keycard_, @vacp2p and Status.

Things have only just begun.

@glgrau @ethstatus @Keycard_ Exciting!

This was a surprising plus for me on leaving @Google . After years of (good) in-house tools, it was really fun to use new tools like @zoom_us @github @expensify @peakonteam

(2) So many 3rd party tools (@github, @zoom_us, @PairWithTuple, @NotionHQ to name a few) - at FB nearly everything was built in house. Working with these external tools makes me feel like I am more in touch with the current state of the industry

I was remote working before #remoteworking was cool. This is just like when I started wearing Nike Shox 6 months too early.

1/ The first glimpse of Facebook: The Inside Story is now on @WIRED. The excerpt centers on Mark Zuckerberg and his lost notebook. It provides a revealing window into his thinking....https://t.co/H6EUOQ0e7n

@Sam_L_Shead They've had a Head of People position open for well over 6 months. Sounds like they need one!
