CHI'24 Preprints are here! Also, I'm launching a community-driven UX Research calendar. What events should I include? userweekly.com/chi-preprints/ #uxresearch #userresearch #hci #marketresearch

An area that user researchers may expand into?

@lawtonpybus Google Sheets to track OKRs. Quarterly with a tab for project details, a tab for a timelines (broken down weekly and roughly when what project happens) and one tab for availability (public holidays, PTO, conferences, etc). ❤️

@GameOverRob @MoccamasterEU @moccamasterusa @Nichecoffee1 Could you please help me identify what white this Moccamaster is so it matches the white Niche Zero? :) Matt white or off white?

@JanAhrend If I’m totally honest I don’t know what the colour is because I ordered a yellow one from Amazon and they delivered one in a yellow box that was white; they heavily discounted it for me instead of me sending it back. If you’re able to figure it out this is the colour.

@GameOverRob I think I saw you have a Niche Zero and a Moccamaster on coffeeforums. Is the Moccamaster the one in “off-white” or is it the Retro White one, so you know?
