@British_Airways So how can I retrieve my Avios to use them somewhere else?

@jkolko You won't be able to transfer your Avios to Iberia while Combine My Avios is unavailable. If you wish to make a booking with Iberia transferring Avios from us, then you can only do this once it's available to do so. JulieR

Hi @British_Airways @Iberia I have 200,000 Avios points trapped in Iberia that I can't transfer out, in order to book with BA. Iberia customer service sends me to BA; BA sends me to Iberia. Please help?

@British_Airways @Iberia I don't understand what I'm supposed to do now, if I can't use the points on Iberia, or BA.

@jkolko @Iberia Unfortunately we're unable to provide a timescale, Jon. Apologies for any inconvenience caused. JulieR

@British_Airways @Iberia Booking with Iberia does not work, and their customer service will not respond to help me. When will that ability be reintroduced?

@jkolko @Iberia Hi Jon. You won't be able to transfer those until Combine My Avios is reintroduced but you can also make bookings through Iberia on partner airlines, subject to availability. Si

@jeffneria ......

@jkolko I think Microsoft adds a touch of Azure to everything.

Design + people - any idea what's going on with the colors here? Feels like some strange colorspace issue, reminiscent of RGB/CMYK?

@joyclee Kind of a bland writing style

BEST DAY EVER

@Loh no

Is it possible to train AI on a judge's rulings and writings, to allow simulated trials for testing legal arguments?

@LeaVerou @arasb Edge on a Thinkpad x1 carbon, Chrome on a Macbook Pro, and the initial Figma image saved out on the Thinkpad.

@arasb @jkolko What device has the screenshot been taken on?

@mrgoble OK; It's incorrect in Chrome, too. I'll try there as well.

@jkolko My guess it more has to do with Edge than Figma. Apparently disabling the Use hardware acceleration when available is a fix for this on edge.

@figma ?

How about a real conversation

@_MatchstickMan Used more by design, dev, or both?

@jkolko Anecdotally, our figma kits get used more than our code kits do.

Design people; I have a sense, with little objective evidence, that Figma-based design systems are rarely actually used, and are going the way of "brand guideline" documents from the 80s. Thoughts?

@foxinthewaves Thinking more of components; the story has always been "here dev, have this system of pieces and parts, and our interfaces will always be consistent." I've never seen it work.

@jkolko I think a design system’s effectiveness says more about the design team’s degree of influence than the quality of the system itself. High influence: renderings remain source of truth. Low influence: source code becomes source of truth. Larger orgs gravitate toward the latter.

@tvrdek Can you say more about how they were used? Do designers break apart the components? Use them directly? Is it plug and play and off you go?
