Re:DevEx: What Drives Productivity by kqr on Sunday May 21, 2023 @06:38AM (#36019591)
Lived experience stands in contrast to observed experience.

I as an outsider may observe a developer experiencing friction in a customer meeting. Ask the developer, and they may reveal that they found the arguments during the meeting highly valuable and productive.

The important thing to take away is that when an outsider looks at a situation, they often see something very different to what the people in it did. That's the difference between lived ("insider") and observed ("outsider").
