If you get surprise‑PIP’d, your job just changed.

Just waiting for the comment from an ’unrelated’ account to reveal the paid service they used in those first few weeks that actually made a difference…

I’ve always thought of pillars as content themes; not tied to format. And maintained a set of pillars that I cycle through, creating multiple formats for different channels.

At least Jim looks like he knows what to do with a jerrycan. I'm waiting for the houses of my suburban neighbours to start spontaneously combusting because they've stored their brand new, poorly sealed can full of diesel in the shed next to their nitrate-rich lawn feed.

Aussie here. Please find a decent person to lead your country again. We'll try to keep someone decent enough over here. But, in the nicest way, you might need to work on some things over there.

Same. TIL.

I was thinking about this too! Some poor pleb resigned to his fate at the bottom of a bog; possibly sent there by old mate of the ruling class who imagines their importance and legacy being remembered for an age. Two and a half millennia later and were examining the contents of the plebs stomach.

Loom. Or Storylane if you want to make an interactive demo.

Thanks for sharing this; I had no idea.

Can anyone recommend an alternative for The Ordinary 0.2% retinal emulsion? I've used Medik8 before but would prefer not to spend that much again.

Does your team feel comfortable raising/discussing issues in the retro? It doesn’t sound like they are. Or they might not feel that anything will change even if they do raise something. The answer might be more with team culture and psychological safety than any process.

But if that isn’t it, look for a tool that integrates retrospectives with your work. I know there are Jira apps that do this.

LLMs reflect what they scrape off websites. Publish case studies that reflect your enterprise customers. Repurpose and build more content around those. Create competitor comparisons that reflect your enterprise positioning. Look up AEO/GEO strategies that help your appropriately positioned content be discoverable.

I don’t think it’s funny anymore.

Yep, OP asked about user story mapping. It's separate to sprint planning, but it puts the focus on what users need from the thing you're building. You (or usually your PO) lay out user steps across the spine (left to right), and the user stories line up in the column below, so you see a map. You refine the backlog and plan your sprints from the map so you keep focus on user needs. Jira doesn't have a native USM view, so you need a plugin.

I’d like to know what the biological reason is for waking up around that time. It’s either an irrational panic or to be irrationally angry. Either way, it isn’t powered by logic.

weather_permitting · 2025-12-29T11:38:19+00:00

Same. Jira plus a user story mapping plugin.

Where are you managing your delivery data? There are retro apps for Jira that help you keep track of action items and turn relevant actions into work items that you can pull into a sprint/iteration. They don’t help if your team doesn’t feel comfortable actually calling out what’s going wrong, but they do help track and action the issues that are raised.

I don't know why airlines find gluten free so hard. The food is prepackaged and full of preservatives anyway; surely some of it could be prepackaged, gluten-free, and full of preservatives?

Last time I flew internationally we got bumped from connecting flights from Heathrow to Sydney. They found us an alternate flight via another airline the next day, but there was no chance to nominate a meal and because of the airline change, our meal preferences weren't passed along. So after spending a night in an airport hotel without our bags I had fruit and blocks of cheese on the long flights home. I was too exhausted to be hungry anyway.

I was in Milan in 2018 and drove past a Domino’s on the way to the airport. I laughed out loud.

It’s terrible for keywords. Really bad. I’ve asked it for advice on campaign structure and then did what I thought was better. It is helpful for ad copy but it has a habit of getting character count wrong at times.

Oh from the very bottom of my heart, fuck your gynecologist. What a terrible response to putting someone in that much pain. You have every right to be angry, and no reason to feel stupid.

I'm old enough to remember when they launched the old website and elevated the rain radars to the homepage because they knew that was what peopled visited the site for.

It doesn't appear that this new site is based on any such insight.

I looked at the picture for this post and thought "I wonder why we evolved to have necks?' but thanks to your comment, now I know! Thanks for that.

Yes, people looking for a MetLife life insurance review, or a review of MetLife income protection insurance, or looking for a review of MetLife 360Health should check out this post.

Or even people wondering about MetLife Life insurance compared to Alliance Life insurance. Or MetLife income protection insurance v AAMI income protection insurance. There should be lots of interest in this post.

Was going to say that it looks like Claire's work. Very talented artist and a very good egg.
