This Slogging thread by Ellen, Richard Kubina, Linh, Guy, Jeferson Borba, and Marcos Fabian occurred in HackerNoon's official #product channel, and has been edited for readability. Here at we have different departments. HackerNoon, Incredible and eccentric people are present throughout the various teams, but department roles differ. As previously announced in our product updates blog account, the marketing department is eager to regularly honour the work of our developers. This 'honours program' helps to keep everyone in the loop on the many cool things we're designing. As such, a discussion about the process was in order. Such a discussion usually requires a meeting. Below is a glimpse of how creative people try and schedule a meeting. Ellen, the makes an attempt to invite herself to a product meeting and is promptly met with suspicion (rightfully so). [Clearly marked satire.] Marketing Campaign Lead Read below: Ellen Feb 17, 2022, 3:02 AM Ellen invited self to meeting tomorrow, please be there ❤ richard-kubina Feb 17, 2022, 4:13 PM Sorry, I am going to be resting today, I feel really tired with a sore throat. Slept in by a couple of hours already, kinda weird for me. I've been working on the Algolia instant search page and next.js v12 cache changes mostly. ❤ 1 🙏 1 Linh Feb 17, 2022, 4:45 PM Looks like we will have to do async since David and I are stuck in traffic back from the immigration office and won't be back until 10.30, unless people want to meet half an hour later? If not, let's post our weekly update here:  @Jeferson Borba @Marcos Fabian @Guy @andemosa @Kaushal Joshi @Beni @Storm Ellen Feb 17, 2022, 4:45 PM Omg is everyone afraid I will sing, I won't sing. :savage-joy: 2 Ellen Feb 17, 2022, 4:46 PM I'll just record the tutorial, it's not that complicated. Or half hour is good too. 💚 1 👌 1 Guy Feb 17, 2022, 4:46 PM I’m currently doing nothing but getting credits for sitting in a lecture theatre… can meet in half an hour or do a writeup - TLDR: NFTs Jeferson Borba Feb 17, 2022, 4:46 PM it can be 30min later or any other time for me, I'm always around anyways :savage-joy: :savage-joy: 1 ❤ 1 Marcos Fabian Feb 17, 2022, 4:47 PM Yeah we could do it 30 min later.

Marcos Fabian Feb 17, 2022, 7:04 PM Wait what happened? Guy Feb 17, 2022, 7:04 PM I think you were host and left. Ellen Feb 17, 2022, 7:04 PM Everything went dark. Marcos Fabian Feb 17, 2022, 7:05 PM Dammmmn sorry guys. The meeting was back on track in a jiffy and an exciting announcement was made. Stay tuned for that.
