Simon Says... retweeted

.@francispedraza (Founder, Invisible Technologies) thinks about competition like the Battle of Thermopylae. “Accenture may have a million people worldwide. But when the passage is narrow, headcount doesn’t matter. What matters is who holds the line. If our 300 Spartans are at the gate with superior tech, we win every time.”

.@Beer52HQ my father died from cancer a few months ago. I don't know how clear I can make it that I do not want your marketing any more. This is horrifically spammy.

.@ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport I tried to use my Three app and it told me I needed to re-register as you'd updated your systems. Why, then, do I get this? What an appalling customer experience.

So if I buy an extra seat to keep empty, that'll be next to me, but not if I buy one for my partner @Ryanair? Elbow room is worth more than a person? 😂

First time I'd genuinely benefit from an airport lounge as flight out of Madeira is delayed, and the only @AmexUK lounge is closed 😑 @AskAmexUK

.@ThreeUK my 5G home internet is failing to load most sites (including @SlackHQ and @figma), but my 5G phone is working fine. Is there an issue with the former?

"Tips" when you start using a product should be limited to three. I promise you, when you take a user through 7 different "cool things" your app can do, they will remember almost none of them. #badUX #Product

I don't think a single piece of software allows replacing an image with one from the clipboard, which is stupid as this is surely the most common use-case... #badUX #badSoftware #product

.@clays_bar the unsubscribe link in your marketing emails gives me this...

.@Tesco apparently your clubcard app is about to expire, so I have downloaded the new general one, but it won't let me log in. I get an nginx error - not ideal?

Are train (& tube) strikes just... a fact of life now? I have 2 really important engagements this week, Thursday & Saturday; one now completely impossible & the other will take *much* longer. Can the bosses please give them what they need asap so we can rely on trains again.

Why does @amazon sometimes just randomly decide to stop showing you the map for deliveries? I was watching it, calculating when I could leave, and all of a sudden the map disappears and I get just "Out for delivery"... cc. @AmazonUK

Likewise, "as easy as taking candy from a baby" is clearly only said by people who have never actually *tried* taking candy from a baby.

When a doctor says “if you have any trouble, just give me a call back” it makes me wonder if a doctor has ever tried calling a doctor

People wearing puffa coats on the tube should be expected to take them off like those with backpacks. It's 25 degrees down here, you don't need a coat, and you're taking up three seats with your massive width.

For those moments when it feels like the 122nd day of January and there's still no sign of February on the horizon, it's time to treat yourself. It's time for Dry Meat.
