It’s a disgrace that there are still airports that make you buy bottled water… selling millions of plastic bottles while talking of sustainability. Just like charging points and wifi, surely airports will need to start offering free tap water if they aren’t yet? Or am I naive…

Great insight from @SethBorko @skiftresearch: labor issues were heating up already before the pandemic

My personal pet peeve: being at a conference with multiple speakers, where organizers have failed to give clear instructions on topics to be presented by each, and haven't shared info/slides of the different sessions to all speakers

What you end up with is a lot of "as presented in the previous session" etc. Speakers will be put on the spot to come up with a new angle to their locked-in slides to still contribute something original.
