Coming to you from Manchester, UK. Product person at Pendo. Walker, cook, nerd.
I’m not sure this notification is anything other than noise. Sometimes it’s useful to be told when rain will start or stop, but knowing there’s a seven minute gap allows me to do… what? Nip across the road without an umbrella to post a letter? Seems un-useful.

These recommendations based on "people in a similar role to you" was pretty harsh from LinkedIn, I felt.

Context: yes, I am currently unemployed, but dammit I don't need robots reminding me 😆

I wonder whether the product team got tired of people not seeing the “Download” menu item, by any chance #ux #product 🤔

Can’t help showing off about eating these leftovers for lunch 😆

In Hamburg for #ProductAtHeart, sitting having la lovely poke bowl lunch overlooking the Langer Zug, watching the boats go past and contemplating all the things.

If I know someone here who’s going, let me know and let’s make sure to say hi while we’re here

Deep in a hedge this morning, foraging the last elderflowers of the season. Back to the job hunting grind this afternoon.

This’ll do.

LinkedIn definitely understands what a non-executive director is.

I’m not sure about this new top area on the Guardian app. Some kind of Reels inspired snack area? Interested to see if it stays and how it evolves.

Someone pointed out I can cook chicken tikka in a portable pizza oven (as well as pizza).

What else can I use it for?

Strange that these two skeets should be one after the other.

What should I have for pudding?

Saw something similar, but on a smaller scale, in some rare snow near us.
