Next Episode: Open Wide

A Double-Digit Episode Spectacular!


For Episode 10 (or should that be Episode X?), we invited a very special guest: Lilac Schoenbeck (https://www.linkedin.com/in/lilac/).


We discussed remote events briefly, riffing off Dominic's recent blog post: https://findthethread.postach.io/post/remote-events


After that, we had a wide-ranging discussion about legacy technology, how come "legacy" is a bad word in the technology industry — but not in the outside world, how technologies become legacy, and what value users find in these technologies.


Some topics that came up:
