@brianleroux Just saw you’re coming back for @webdirections! Nice one. 😃
Public service announcement: please don’t turn up to meetups if you haven’t registered. Please don’t assume “waitlist” means “I have a seat.” Love, a beleaguered meetup organiser 😢

@charis @trannosaurusma Depends on the venue. When it’s one that requires names to be preregistered with security and where they have already allotted 2x tickets, dropins don’t work.

No offence to previous #sydtechleaders speakers, but having UX experts on tonight’s program means the slide design is 💯👌. https://t.co/ZTGQD5PeIV

“If you have a design system, you win. Even better if it’s cared for by a central DesOps team!” – @LucindaBurtt First time I’ve ever typed DesOps, but I bet it won’t be the last! #sydtechleaders https://t.co/9CHQ7uIxZS

Me at #sydtechleaders tonight, trying to rearrange things so we can totally party with the Haitians (I mean, “front end folks”). 😂 https://t.co/5z7bZWyViu

“The 5 Whys? How about the 5 So What’s! Does it really matter? Is it important?” @bencrothers #sydtechleaders 😂 https://t.co/RJgtQYTsMH
@jonoabroad @bencrothers This one doesn’t count since I help run it. 😂
Did I mention @darthted shaved his beard? It’s freaking me out. Suddenly flashing back to the time my Dad shaved his moustache in the 80’s. https://t.co/obnWavcF2T
Useful tip from @diversionary to frame your discussions around “How might we…?” #sydtechleaders https://t.co/dvW7g2ZXWG
Look at the hacks and workarounds your customers use. It will show you their mental model, and what needs they have that aren’t being met by your product. @bencrothers #sydtechleaders https://t.co/xdj3oSjF4l
Mike is enjoying the post-meetup tunes. msharp https://t.co/VFINUdtXct

Apologies to all the lovely folks who asked me about my new job tonight at #sydtechleaders and got a very short answer! Hosting is more stressful than it looks. 😂

My bus driver has the classical station playing loudly. It’s given the whole ride home a rather theatrical vibe. I like this.

@pnc18 Heh. I shared that one a few days ago. I found the reference to Starbucks and spelling of “Mom” rather telling. Those are Americanisms. Either they copied a US ad, or deliberately trying to mimic one. Either way – no, not normal.
Thankfully for them, none of these other job ads are even remotely like that awful Mongoose Gray one. (I had to laugh when I saw the email though!) https://t.co/F3iRo9YqrA
@The_McJones It you, and @starbuxman? Two awesome people in one place! If you haven’t met, you should.
@starbuxman @The_McJones You’re both YOW alumni and friends of Kris and amazing folks. It’s a home run!
Good grief. (But am I alone in hoping “Online Hiring Tournament” = Fortnite-style “last exec standing” fight to the death? I’d watch the crap out of that on Twitch. 😂) https://t.co/6gkvxAx6IS
