Explain

Started reading this, really good so far, easy to read even though a technical topic and concepts

In Zendesk, each team had a display over their desk area and would have their team specific dashboards & metrics. SLIs/SLOs etc for engineers, sales team had quotas etc on display

Luke Fitz on the Left Wing has been pointing out these frailties for a while, think they were well and truly shown up, I hope for his own sake he isn’t called up to the Lions

As someone who went to all European games last year (going to all the rounds and the final), there is a bit of fatigue with the prices in my case

Someone on the growth team in Atlassian, “I know what we’ll do, send everyone loads of new types of emails that sound cool and friendly”.

Why do I need: “Alan Cooke, well done! You completed the sprint”?

California Academy of Sciences The California Academy of Sciences is a science museum—and scientific and educational institution—located in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park.

I’m an Arc user and rely on pinned pages in a folder, drag and drop a tab in there and eventually take action

Read your article and we are very much interested in adopting the folders, curious how long of an endeavour it was for you? was it a day/few days/week/month?

Any downsides from your migration

Awesome, thanks so much!

Ideal would be to allow a deep link to another flow or an API to intercept the button press. We have a Zendesk flow and it our support team would rather us to use it over email. It allows us to capture extra data like Rev Cat User ID etc

@charliemchapman.com any plans to allow integrators of Rev Cat contact center to select their preferred support method? Want to avoid email in this case.

Having spent the last week digging in the depths of fastlane the amount of crazy high level blog posts that add zero value on topics like Github Actions + fastlane + running tests is kind of disappointing, I don't write much publicly unless I feel it advances something that isn't already out there.

Excited for that

Any good starter packs?

Also they recorded singing live 🤯

Did you pay the extra $20 for API access, seems a friction to buying, looking forward to hearing your experience before I face the import duty to Ireland

I always find the run in to the end of the year exhausting. Hope you can disconnect and rest over Christmas

Progress

In fact, we don’t have to give releases much thought at all. But, this ...
