My Grandad's advice for safe driving was: "Always remember you're controlling a potentially lethal weapon". I think it helped me to take driving even more seriously.
Perhaps it's good advice for us technologists too...

Obviously, this doesn't work for acquaintances or whatever. I mean—it still kinda can, but it's less deep. "Hi, everyone. This is Ben and I'm on the line in Austin with Jamie. She was instrumental in that really inspiring ad spot last year that won all the awards." 🤷🏻♂️ Context changes things. Shocking, I know.
I don't remember where I read this first, but it's something I've been trying to do over the last few years, and maybe you will like it, too: When you introduce two friends who you want to become friends (or introduce a new friend to a friend group) don't just say, "This is Beth.
