  https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/ux/research/-/issues/168

  I just finished the last session this afternoon. All the logistics
  went extremely well. Now I'll start the analysis.

  While preparing the tests, we discussed the "ResearchOps" quite a bit
  with Alicia to come up with more standard procedures to screen
  participant, give them incentives, and conduting remote research.

  All this with make it easier, faster, and cheaper to run usability
  tests in the future.
