@kolombiken Saddest part of course is that this is one of the most experienced dev teams and many people look to them for inspiration...

@kolombiken Had not seen that, thanks! Gah, a template for checking 'after development' and not a single mention of involving people with disabilities.

An industry giant hands you a job offer in an envelope. But the paper inside is blank. You decide salary, benefits, time off and any other wishes you may have.
Who did you imagine? And how do you respond?

@theredheadsaid Very true. In my head I was hearing the peer variant 😂
@theredheadsaid People around me are now saying the hard "r" from Per doesn't exist in English.
@theredheadsaid So I was all kinds of wrong 😂
↪ Replying to @unknown
@theredheadsaid The best way to explain it is that the "e" sounds like "ai" in Pair (in queen's English). But the "r" is hard like in ferry.

@KikoEnjani Funny thing about Swahili and Swedish is that I've found them quite similar in pronunciation. Not that I know more than basic greetings, but I've at least heard and seen enough to have a reasonable idea ;)

@theredheadsaid Both :) You'd think one syllable wouldn't pose as many misconstructions as it does. 😁
Ha, I would have pronounced Ya-shev-ski.
Thinking of adding a sound file to my landing page with a guide to pronouncing my name. I realize I'm wondering this often about others... maybe someone out there is curious about mine.
I don't mind mispronunciations though...

I know people are asking around and waiting to get an invite to HEY email. But I don't think you need one anymore? Just go to the site and register for an account... no code needed. Worked for me in two different browsers.

@Grinblo I'm not sure you still need one? I could go straight to the site and register a new account this morning.

@fimbault My understanding is that more parties adds to the complexity of managing it well. Is that fair?
Perhaps the more interesting point is supporting Google and Amazon, which many want to avoid today, and I should make a separate point about that.
