Now I'm worried that you don't know I'm coming, and will give my seat away to someone else. How can I connect someone to check into my United flight over the phone, or how else might I resolve this?

📖Matches, Spoons, And The Relationship Between DX and UX - @pepopowitz used two metaphors, and one questionable psychological theory, to explain how hes thinks about DX, why he think it is important, and how he sees its relation to UX. https://t.co/lK7BRmvoGh

I ain't gonna lie, I don't enjoy Mastodon as much as I enjoyed Twitter. But if you're thinking about moving over there, start the process soon, because it's about to get a lot harder to rebuild your social graph. A couple things to add....

Thanks to all the friends I met here. This was my favorite form of social media, it fit with my brain (and preyed on it but who's counting). The software engineering community here was incredible. Hope I see you over at the 🦣 site.
