Breaking the cycle. It's the subject I care a lot about these days. I've been around long enough professionally (and f**ked up enough times) to probably give some good advice. Especially if you're 1st gen Asian American, in UX, are introverted. HMU maybe I can help.
I look at the way a Figma file is laid out in similar fashion. It says a lot about:
• how the designer thinks
• what's their approach to design
• how they process information
To a certain extent, even the naming of layers. Though Figma AI will obscure this.
One of my favorite Steve Jobs sayings is the one where he discusses with engineers the layout and design of the circuit boards inside of the machine.
“Nobody will ever know,” Steve said. But you will know."
To this day, no other Steve Jobs quote has stuck as much as this one.
@kerem 💯 couldn't agree more. The hardest part for the untrained eye is knowing something is off, but not being able to articulate why and how to remedy it.
hey designers, is there a good solution for connecting data to design? I wanna populate them with real data. I found Kernel but seems like they are out of business? Suggestions welcomed!

Nothing like an in-person event to bring a team together.
I met my team for the first time in person where we shared stories, joked, and really gelled as a team. I can't wait for the next one!
Oh, and the cherry on the top–my team won the hackathon 🏆 (my first ever!)
Stumbled upon this site while looking for superscripts to use in Slack. (Maybe this should be a feature in Slack especially useful for long form writing)

1. @FTC has taken action against Adobe and two executives for pushing people into subscriptions and then making it absurdly hard to cancel.
Adobe ambushed users with hefty "early termination fees" and threw up obstacles when people tried to cancel.

@yilmazermananit Agreed. I think it's healthy to step outside our comfort zones. It's always surprising to me (and positive) when you're able to make connections when least expected.
Need focus mode in Figma, where multi-player is turned off.
Nothing induces more anxiety than having a freelance client hovering in Figma as you're designing (and in the zone). Instant buzz-kill.
