@jdgalarneau Any chance that Paris is in your Euro trip itinerary?

Among the many failings of the Jedi in the waning hours of the Republic, perhaps the most fateful was their invention of the dreaded "hybrid meeting format"

99% of the time I just want to do one thing with a coffee machine.

This button menu with shared states and ambiguous descriptions is pretty bad UX for my goal

The climate transition contains many unknowns and difficult trade-offs. Here a discussion, with many questions and some answers. A key issue for policy makers: if the climate change and macro objectives conflict, what should prevail? https://t.co/O4KgWBKWYe @el_pais

We were missing this part of Huxley’s Brave New World. Affordable flying vehicles next?

The photographs alone tell a fantastic story—a mouse embryo, complete with beating heart cells, a head, and the beginning of limbs, alive and growing in a glass jar. https://t.co/1RFZFmgJSC

@jdgalarneau @Walgreens As someone in the business, I can relate

@edo Great thread and article! Interested in your thoughts re: lower experience levels (# years) or selection bias influencing the results. Part of being a PM is learning how to transform the stakeholder convo towards outcomes. Unfortunate but true

The city demolished a homeless encampment behind the Walmart after Walmart asked them to and also shortly after unveiling a new piece of public art across the street hailed as evidence yet again that Worcester is a city on the rise https://t.co/3U7Iiq4973

Great example of system dynamics at play.

1) Executive order effective immediately over riding the zoning rules in Long Beach and Los Angeles to allow truck yards to store empty containers up to six high instead of the current limit of 2. Make it temporary for ~120 days.

@tldview Also curious as a product person if you’re willing to share - who are you targeting as the ideal user persona?

Insights from interviewing remote professionals:

The pandemic has transformed the calendar into a home base for planned collaboration.

People are in back-to-back “meetings” - many that used to be serendipitous whiteboarding sessions.

[Tyler Stone @tyler_stone_]

@tldview At first glance this strikes me as a move towards fewer meetings by highlighting the most important bits of the conversation for those who may be less involved in discussion. Am I right? Cool idea!

Does this take the place of a written list of action items or notes?

[Tyler Stone @tyler_stone_]

Meeting types and purpose are now more ambiguous.

Less “this meeting could have been an email”

More purposeful collaboration and effective meeting practices

@climateinteract I received an email to join the En-ROADS workshop on 10/21 but registration is closed - any chance I can still attend?

[Tyler Stone @tyler_stone_]

@jboogie Yes! I write about this here and how many software projects have an ever-expanding scope akin to a fractal structure: https://t.co/jeh4GUBo9O

Your unique product feature will eventually assume the form of commodity functionality after enough iteration

First week of product testing with early users.

Direct user feedback, new bugs, unexpected scenarios, and usage patterns that indicate we still have a lot of work to do.

Now to iterate on learnings as quickly as possible.
