    In a world full of Zoom calls, I’ve found this useful: ❌ “Can everyone see my screen?” - awkward pause - 99% of the time they do ✅ “I’m assuming you can see my screen now. Let me know if not” - communicating expectations - no awkward pause

    So fortunate that I was involved in adding this feature that lets you view clothes on models of different sizes! Always amazed at the difference between the cover model and the alt model wearing the same size All clothing sites should do this ☺️

    Hardly anyone is using semver right because the naming is misleading. Major Minor Patch seems to refer to the significance and size of the update rather than the API compatibility. New suggestion: Breaking Feature Fix BFF for short ✨
