@github.com really needs to introduce a fuzzy search when adding members to a team. I can be one character off or miss a hypen and it totally doesn't find the right person.

Thames water upping the prices by quite a bit this year... Can't wait for my money to go to the shareholders that have sucked the company dry, released shit, literal shit, into the ocean, and have given customers no added value... Fuck you Thames water

The chrome web store UI update looks decent. A quick plug, if you need some help with default zooms in Google Docs or Sheets, I've made extensions that are helpful, listed below...

Default: chromewebstore.google.com/detail/googl...
