For my product managers, UX, dev and QA friends. What do you say in meetings ‘dot dot dot’, ‘three dots’ or ‘ellipses’ ???

I would say ellipses in a meeting, but if I'm being super casual I would say dot dot dot, especially if I wanted to emphasize the dots for dramatic effect lol.

Our product managers say dot dot dot, I haven't heard anyone say three dots or ellipses.

It an ellipse. That’s just the content term in general. We use circles as a graphic element and sometimes people call those dots. Not being clear can lead to a confusing conversation in our case.

Yeah. Around our office the common term is dot, dot, dot but we also have devs in Mexico and India. Maybe it’s a language barrier. I want to sound like an elitist by saying ellipses, but I secretly want to every time.

Dot dot dot!

This made me laugh. I always say dot dot dot. And when people say ellipses I always forget that is actually what it is called.

I’m interviewing for a start up and the role sounds interesting. Usually for the “test” part of the interview I’ve had to analyze data.

Is this a lot for an interview?

I’m a little afraid of doing all this work to then just have them take my ideas and not hire me.

Facebook Ads after iOS 14 changes.

I'll share my experience and urge you to share yours:

Since iOS 14 changes, Facebook ads isn't the same anymore. Why?

A. >75% iOS users denied tracking. They are no longer tracked across websites/apps. Facebook lost its edge.
B. Targeting and conversion tracking aren't as effective anymore.
C. Many advertisers have been migrating their budgets from Facebook to Apple and Amazon ads.

What's your experience? Let's all learn.

So, recently got put on a PIP after six months at my new job., two days after I told my boss and HR I recently learned I have a cognitive disability caused by an illness. The PIP was mostly because I forgot some deadlines, but also they said I need to be more professional in emails (even though others use zero punctuation and a lot of emojis. To clients.) and simultaneously ask more questions and ask fewer questions. Should I just assume this is unattainable and look for a new job again?
