“We don’t have enough empathy, not just in API design or technology, but the world in general. You’ll see it again and again…stories where things have gone sideways because there wasn’t enough understanding, care, or consideration for a party on the other side of a transaction. With APIs, whether you’re in a small company or an enterprise, whether you’re a single developer or a product manager with multiple teams…having empathy and true connection is absolutely vital” - Matthew Reinbold
