I sat down again with David Robinson, the Director of Technology for fashion brand Cuyana.

We talked about some of the discount functionality he's building for black Friday, some app proxy URL adventure that I'm having, a super weird checkout capture issue, some point of sale stuff, as well as a really interesting AI tool David started using for summarizing calls.
