Una historia más del terrible servicio de @avianca , teníamos un vuelo Santa Marta - Bogotá, el cual pagamos la tarifa más alta antes de la clase ejecutiva y cancelación 3 sin razón y con el check-in ya realizado!!
Habiendo llegado al counter de @avianca, nos informa la Sra. que el vuelo previo al cancelado está lleno. Pero oh sorpresa! Aún tienen sillas disponibles!

Colombia’s new president is paying for his foolish refusal to co-operate with the handover process initiated by the previous government. The result is that it lacks information and capabilities that it urgently needs to respond economist.com/the-americas/2…

Product Design teams.
How are you prototyping?
Prototyping and building within your production repo? Prototyping in seperate prototyping repos and sharing with your partners?
Both have merit and I am curious how you are focusing your investments. 1 or the other? Both?

8 P.M. is not that good. Could you change it to between 1 and 2 P.M., or if possible, 1 and 2 A.M.?
Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I.E.Z.

unpopular opinion but people get "taste" wrong.
taste isn't knowing what looks good. everyone knows what looks good.
Ira Glass said it best, "all of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. but there's a gap, for the first couple years, what you're making isn't so good."
what he meant is that, taste isn't about knowing what's right.
taste is knowing what's wrong; even when everything on the surface looks perfect.
they'll look at a technically flawless screen and say "something's off." the hierarchy is fighting the user's intent. the design is beautiful but dishonest.
it's called the "aesthetic-usability effect," users assume beautiful interfaces work better, even when they don't. people with real taste know this trap and refuse to let beauty hide bad decisions.
taste isn't knowing what looks good; it's knowing what's wrong.

It so would be nice if @TIDAL could be used with Alexa at home worldwide. This is one of the things I lost when moving from Spotify.
