watching designers hype up these painfully average multi-page brand kits really shows how deep in the gutter the bar for design is right now.

Every UX designer walking into a cockpit: Clutter!

Every pilot walking into a cockpit: Clarity!

The word "clutter" is terribly overused in the UX/design field, commonly serving as a superficial critique of decoration while often ignoring the design's true context.

it’s crazy but access to capital right now is way easier than access to people who match your wavelength.

[Maung Thuta @CypressDahlia]

I like that a core strategy of the AI industry is trying to convince everyone that they hate being alive and doing anything. That your only desire as a human being is to put out product and make money and get likes on social media. But you shouldn't enjoy any actual activity.

hammer-nail problem: when your only tool is visual design, every problem looks like it can be solved with an aesthetic face lift.

we’ve reduced "problem-solving" to mean "make it pretty and usable" when real problems are far messier and more systemic.

[Lindsay Ballant @lindsayballant]

For the record this is why I've disassociated from the design class. They view every problem as a "design challenge" and their solutions too often look like this—useless graphic design exercises made for themselves, for the purpose of creating Good Design that wins design awards

bangalore people will be a lot happier when they realise that what they need is a public library not another bloody cafe.

[Lon Harris @Lons]

What's interesting here is that a computer did the fun, creative job of drawing Kermit in various scenarios, and then a human did the boring, labor-intensive job of creating shortcuts with custom thumbnails to open all of their favorite apps. https://t.co/jjgI3uh9iu
