@MegBartelt @tommut Same, this would feel super awkward for me! If I need time to center myself, I block out the time on my own calendar. Meta made the default in our calendaring system to start at 10:05, 10:35 etc so that there’s a 5 min break between meetings and THAT helps a lot.

My hard to quantify, “last leg of the relay race” team started a similar project this half (led by @ChenelleB) to track how we contribute to the success of games we launch. Seeing the same approach here gives me hope that we’ll learn more about what moves the needle.
Our work is at its best when it equips people with the information they need to make change. But how do we know if we’re doing that? We’re sharing a database we adapted from @resolvephilly. We hope this guide can be helpful for other newsrooms. themarkup.org/levelup/2022/1…
Modern first generation releases are not the products we need, but the products we deserve.
Am I no longer an early adopter archetype? No, it’s the products that are wrong!
@evanextreme Ehh, it meets modern expectations for a first gen product: demonstrates something new but doesn’t take full advantage, works mostly fine, expensive for the actual value provided
