If you think this is US-only, it's not. If you think the GDPR protects you, it's doesn't. If you hadn't realised privacy is a national security and corporate espionage issue, it is. If you think politicians can't tackle this, they can. If you believe that tech or business need this, they don't.

Enjoying the thought-provoking final @sdingov.bsky.social keynote - Steph Wright on AI in public services: Responsibility, realism, and public good. “The majority of AI discourse today is framed through the lens of inevitability - but at this point not involving AI is still a choice.”

In a session @sdingov.bsky.social on the NHS App with @jiggott.bsky.social and @mikegallagher.bsky.social getting my regular reminder of how impressive a design achievement it is given the *absolute state* of the systems and services landscape it has to try and bring together under the hood….

I can code, I am pretty good at understanding complex technical concepts, I can work across macro and micro levels of a problem. But for the life of me, can I make Powerpoint SmartArt do the actual thing I want it to? It is completely non-sensical.

Internet help! I need to record some presentations this afternoon. I have no idea what video / audio settings to use for a reasonable recording that can be easily worked with afterwards. Can anyone advise? Formats? Bitrates? Using OBS (unless I should use something else!) 🙏🏻

A write-up of a spontaneous ramble about roadmapping I gave at an event the other day. It's probably more useful than the forever-unfinished prior version, which will never see the light of day (given that it hasn't over the last few months). www.leaningforward.com/blog/2023/11...

I’m looking for blog posts or case studies, examples on ‘personas’ and why they are useful or not. I’m not a fan but I’d like to articulate this better and be able to explain the pros and cons. Anyone out here have something useful I can have a look? 🙏

I still do not understand the MS Teams tenant / organisation / account model. Why do some links prompt me to change the org I'm active within under the same account? And why do my chats only exist in one org and not another... it's very confusing!

Is there any good thinking / discussion out there about approaches to providing training for users in the use of specialist professional tools? In contrast to say public facing services where we would expect the principle of "it should be easy enough to use that people don't need training".

Does anyone recognise this: "Ah, reminder, 2 minutes until my 15:00 call. I'll just finish what I'm doing and hop on..." *Do stuff. Look up.* "Dammit, 15:03" *Scrabble to jump on call* If so, I've just discovered an app called "In Your Face" on the Mac App Store and it is EXACTLY what I needed
