@Noahpinion @RishiJoeSanu I'm a 2020 English grad with good TC; AMA

Damn, that is a brutal chart. (via @RishiJoeSanu)

@MogeyQ I've found this problem to be synonymous with people who associate work with their identity. We all need a degree of separation. Disagreement becomes slight of ego, not objective feedback or a differing idea.

@LinkedIn please add the role "Conversation Designer" to LinkedIn job alerts. Signed, not a UX Designer.

@WarbyParker Thank you!!! 👻😁

@WarbyParker waiting impatiently for your October playlist on Spotify 👀👻

Every community should have affordable, livable housing for every resident. That’s what we’re going to deliver. This week, we unveiled the Affordable Homes Act — a $4 billion blueprint for more homes all across our state.

@esthercrawford A million times yes! Hearing this phrase is motivating and aggravating at the same time.

Every interesting business and breakthrough was told “that can’t be done” by smart and authoritative people who were wrong.

@AvivaRealEstate Also, if I reach out to a public figure I probably won’t hear back. At some point you’ll have to come to terms with the fact that you’ll need to leave it parasocial — you don’t owe everyone a response, especially when it comes to protecting your time/sanity.

@AvivaRealEstate I’d do a periodic Q&A session where people can sign up. If they’re persistent, request an agenda. Often times, people don’t have a clear objective that requires a meeting. I’m always open to chats and aimlessly talking for 30min, but at this stage for me it’s only 1 or 2/week.

Looking for advice : I get asked to lunch 20x a week. By title, lenders, & people looking to get into the industry. How do I handle this without offending people and being mindful of my own time? Thx in advance.

So much love in the conversation design community ♥️

I don't know that anyone has ever cold outreached in a sales context with a product that legitimately could help me. Most companies resorting to sales that are focused at me are pretty awful recruiting services, soc2, virtual assistant, offshore developer farms, etc. it's almost all garbage. if you're the founder and send a quick dm with "hey I built a cool thing, here's a video, I think you would like it because x" that will probably get me to at least look at it and respond

@ReamBraden @thesuperadvisor I wanna set my widget icon for web back to default 🤓

@thesuperadvisor I think it’s such a major compliment because it almost assumes everything else is right if you’re nitpicking the email change flow vs any core functions Comments like this are awesome

😅 always room to improve

@caspxal @theintercept Thinking about all the towns that could sue their police unions for statements they don’t agree with, lmao.

@theintercept On what grounds are they suing them? Is there historical precedence for a company suing its workers for free expression? I don't understand. Starbucks doesn't have a stake in the conflict. money.cnn.com/2014/08/08/new…

Starbucks is suing its union, Starbucks Workers United, after objecting to the group’s social media post in support of Palestine after the Hamas attack on Israel, according to an internal company note obtained by The Intercept. interc.pt/403Qi3t

@elonmusk you’re full of it when you say bots have been solved for. Look at all the replies to this post. Significantly worse than before your midlife crisis.

@XboxSupport why was I suspended two days for sending this to someone harassing me? 😂😭

@VCBrags “Oh no customer churn is at all time highs now, let’s make a clickbait Tweet”

🤨

@CBSSunday You say that like I’ve been on the Titanic. I’m AMERICAN, tell me in FOOTBALL FIELDS 🏈🏈🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@AndrewSchmidtFC I am doing some writing myself on a very similar concept, specific to conversation design, I’d love to attend.

I’m giving a talk at #Config2023! Is it about content? No, not really. Design? Eh... It’s called “THE DYING DAYS OF DELIGHTFUL SOFTWARE” and it is odd. Peculiar. A rabbit hole. A ride. Please come!
