@garius Just coming back under the first threshold doesn't cut it - you have to go _all the way back_ to the opposite one to flip back. 2/2

[Adrian Long @the_eggwhite]

@garius Another analogy (from electronics) would be a bistable... Also delightfully known as a flip-flop. Sits in one firm state until a threshold is reached, then switches to the opposite state... until an _opposite_ threshold is reached to bring it back. 1/2

@garius Just wait until you have to give them eyedrops.

It's a bit like juggling knives in a tumble dryer full of broken glass.

Tbf this is exactly like trying to meet with your account manager for any 3rd party system you buy as a university.

@MarillionOnline It's basically what happens if you use red wine methods with white grapes.

red grapes with skin = red wine
red grapes no skin = rose
white grapes no skin = white
white grapes with skin = orange

Next time you're in Georgia (country, not US state), try it there!

Data should be the source of objective decision making to arrive at a measurable outcome. Especially in product management. "We only build what our customers tell us they want" is not objective decision making and may lead to heavily compromized products. #prodmgmt

@TrickMTG @MrsTad Don't ask to be hit with a Tad Williams book! You might die! Or at least get a concussion...

As a…
– Google Image Search user
I want to…
– be redirected to Pinterest
so that…
– I can use the modal overlay to create an account, to access the link to the Reddit post which has the Imgur link to the image I was looking for

I am both intrigued and disturbed…which makes it good art…right? 😅

@mslanei When I bought my latest vehicle, I had a choice between black, metallic grey or white. They were literally the only colours in the UK for that vehicle.

Naturally, I've since seen a red one, and wondered how they managed it!
