#FediHire: Anyone looking for an experienced senior product manager with strong Customer (#CX) and User (#UX) experience thought-leadership, who has worked on software and hardware appliances, and who has lengthy background experience in data protection, pre-sales, consulting, services and training?

I'm preferably looking for remote opportunities, working Australia/New Zealand timezones, or US west-coast timezones (with some flex). And I have plenty of body-clock experience in working shifted hours to accommodate US timezones.

Some days just call for something heavy 🤘 tasty and dark. Moon Dog's Black Lung X is just what you need.

This #BA stout is soft as silk with a boozy & smokey rhythm section playing in the background. Nothing overpowers, extremely well-balanced.

"...we sourced some of the smokiest barrels we could find all the way from the home of smoky whisky, Islay, Scotland.... we brewed the biggest, booziest, Black Lungiest, Black Lung..."

This is a pretty cool submission tool.
Have a go!

As it's almost impossible to get some plant-based burger patties in NZ nowadays... Morningstar, Bird's Eye, even Impossible and Beyond seem to have left the market... It's time to create 'em yourself. DIY patties.

Tasty attempt nr. 1 😋 Good mix of TVP, beans and breadcrumbs... Next time add some vital wheat gluten as well.

Combined with Nu-Dairy's plant-based cheese and condiments it was the perfect Thursday lunch.
