I could not be more pleased for JK and @FT. I can't wait to see what they achieve together.
Two nights in a row @RoundhouseLDN. @lauramarlinghq yesterday and @wearevillagers tonight. Too much excitement.
We hosted @makersacademy's Women in Software Awards @FT's London HQ. Makers have helped train 30+ of our very talented engineers so it was lovely to be able to do something to say thank you. And London put on its best sunset for the occasion. blog.makersacademy.com/women…
Net promoter score for a covid test. 10 out of 10 would recommend. If, for example, you think you have covid ...
The sun _always_ shines on @FT rounders. But having not seen the team in 16 months I’d happily do this in the rain.
Stunning thought provoking film by @juliet_riddell, @tomhannen and many other brilliant people. @FT does heart stopping drama.

Some quite brilliant and alarming work by @FT's @alekswis @aendrew @emmalewis @carolinenevitt @madhumita29 @ifwross and @tomhannen on how companies and states are using facial recognition. Also, I learnt I can't stop a car with my face. ig.ft.com/emotion-recognitio…
I really enjoyed talking to @randy_silver and @lilylimpet about how @FT does new product development. As ever, talking about a problem helps you understand what you know and where you have more work to do.
Building and managing products is hard. Building an organisation that manages existing products, and is optimised to build new ones is exponentially harder. For a little advice on the subject, we spoke with the @FT's @caitoriordan for this week's @MTPpod mtp.io/3tocL9g

It's a wrap 🎉👏🏽🚀🔥 Incredible work by the @lifeatFT team with insightful key takeaways and thoughts. There were great questions at the end, too!
A huge thank you to everyone who joined and made the event a success 🙌🏽 Until next time 🎩 #FTProduct
I am honoured to be shortlisted as a business ally in the #BritishLGBTAwards. Almost as much as I was to be nominated in the first place by the utterly brilliant and dedicated @Mellywellington and @Cassius_Naylor. britishlgbtawards.com/hsbc-u…
In product we're supposed to embrace failure but learning from mistakes is easier said than done. Join Caroline Wilcock, Xuan Zhang and @martinlfallon1, who'll be sharing what we have learnt from our failures @FT

One of the many things I love about our Product and Tech team @FT is how people move around and develop their careers. @elevnd joined our very talented service desk team and now is a junior engineer. You can read her story here medium.com/ft-product-techno….

You’re right, I did work at the @FT And boy did I get that exchange rate wrong.
I have only just discovered this.
Gary Kemp worked at the Financial Times as a prices clerk. One of his jobs was to give the dollar-pound exchange rates to the typesetters to put into the next day’s paper. via @MichaelAHann

It's a year since I went to a gig. Of all the things I miss about life before lockdown, live music is very high on the list. I do hope to back @UnionChapelUK and to see @niluferyanya and @marthahillmusic before another year is out.
Such a lovely way to celebrate International Women's Day - watching @niluferyanya at the @UnionChapelUK. Stunning.
Last time I saw @seedensemble we were crammed into the @vortexjazz club and had to duck to avoid being hit on the head by the trombone. @cassiekinoshi and co were still very spectacular from my sofa. Although, obviously, I'd take the moderate peril of seeing them live.

Inside the ‘Covid Triangle’: a catastrophe years in the making ft.com/content/0e63541a-8b6d… My latest piece, which is this weekend's @FTMag cover story. “Early on, it was all ‘we’re in this together’ and ‘the virus doesn’t discriminate’. But then it emerged that it did”.
Spending an evening with @emmy_the_great is a very lovely way to be reminded there is still a world out there to be enjoyed.
