How much your IT costs you? Spent 30 minutes on @UPS trying to understand which field had a wrong input in the 40-field form (182 eur for 0.5kg). Was getting just a message wrong input without any reference what/where. Switched to @DHLGlobal at half price same delivery times.

@DoctorJosh Really tricky, yet the fact you are invited (and not censored) is a positive sign. The organizers are not responsible for the poor record and most likely fight it with these activities. Also, don't neglect the opportunity to make an impact on the side. A short visit at a Uni/lab.

If you were invited to speak at a tech event in a country with a poor human rights record, would you accept? Clearly there any many reasons not to. IMHO, the only reason for accepting would be to connect with and inspire young people there: their future change makers. Thoughts?

@giloi @British_Airways Same situation here with @British_Airways. They claim that I "chose" the voucher option while they were "still flying", not picking up phones in March, there was a travel ban for the US and the only options were voucher or just tax back!

#easyjetrefund is trending in the UK, but is nobody going to talk about @British_Airways trying to push customers to vouchers and not processing refunds? #BARefund twitter.com/giloi/status/1…

@AmexUK @AskAmexUK I have two bookings with BA that have been cancelled, I requested a cash refund two weeks ago but I've had nothing back and @British_Airways aren't responding to my tweets/DMs. Is there anything you can do to recover the money please?

My flight is at 08:00 sharp, but I have to guess and scroll all the way down before realising that it is up to 07:59, and I should be on the next tab to find my flight. Either include it on both or update the buckets to XX:59 #UX @Schiphol

@AndrewYNg The success of Machine Learning will be to create robots and systems smart enough so that they don't bother take us over! #AIpun

StackOverflow appears to be down. Sit back and watch the global slump in software developer productivity.

@NS_online People are running like crazy in the stations to catch their trains! Paint a fast lane corridor at the stations to help them and avoid accidents with the other passengers!
